I think we're having that discussion for every soc :-) .

Uarts. gpios, i2c and spi are always labeled foo[0-...] in all pieces
of Rockchip documentation.

The i2c0 controller has pins i2c0-scl, i2c0_sda; i2c0-labeled iomem;
i2c0-labeled irq, clk_i2c0, resetn_i2c0.


I completely _agree_ that {sdhci, sdmmc, emmc, sdio} -> mmcX is fully
board specific, but i2c0 should always get the i2c0 label and no other
controller should occupy that soc-specific i2c0-space, because that would
cause confusion without end.


And with the above it makes no real sense repeating the same list for
every individual board.

If you _insist_ on this, then fine, but I really don't see the point.
