Please, consider thay my patch has been *not* accepted into main line
due a mutex problem... :'(

I have just defined the i2c devices behind the mux as connected to the
new virtual adapters:

static int wr1100_adap_ids[] = {
        2, 3,
};

static struct pca954x_platform_data wr1100_i2cmux_adap_ids = {
        .adap_ids       = wr1100_adap_ids,
        .len            = ARRAY_SIZE(wr1100_adap_ids),
};

static struct i2c_board_info __initdata wr1100_i2c_devices[] = {
        {
                I2C_BOARD_INFO("pca9540", 0x70),
                .platform_data = &wr1100_i2cmux_adap_ids,
        },
};

static struct i2c_board_info __initdata wr1100_i2c_mux_devices[] = {
        {
                I2C_BOARD_INFO("bq27200", 0x55),
        },
};

Then into machine startup code:

        i2c_register_board_info(0, wr1100_i2c_devices,
                                        ARRAY_SIZE(wr1100_i2c_devices));
        i2c_register_board_info(2, wr1100_i2c_mux_devices,
                                        ARRAY_SIZE(wr1100_i2c_mux_devices));
        i2c_register_board_info(3, wr1100_i2c_mux_devices,
                                        ARRAY_SIZE(wr1100_i2c_mux_devices));

Ciao,

Rodolfo
