IIRC The Bananapi series have pull-ups on the default I2C pins.

My personal position is if the vendor explicitly labeled X pin as Y
peripheral, then we should enable it by default, since that is possibly
what many users would be expecting. We can list, but explicitly disable,
other peripherals that the vendor mentioned as optional or changeable.
Obviously most pins are changeable from the SoC PoV, so my focus here
is what the vendor intended.
Unfortunately I've not completely worked this out with Maxime yet,
and I am somewhat busy on other fronts lately. I'll be at ELCE this
year, so hopefully we'll get this sorted out soon.

I believe it does, but I've never actually tried it.
