Is it important to be on INFO level?

	struct device_node *i2c_node __free(of_node_put) =

Shouldn't you drop reference count for "node"? (See also below)

Hmm... Is "node" reference count left bumped up for a reason?

Please avoid putting filenames inside files. In the possible future event of
file renaming this may become a burden and sometimes even forgotten.

Do you really need to hide data types with this? Wouldn't be enough to hide
APIs only?
