I have a sneaking suspision, does this diff fix it:

diff --git a/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-acpi.c
b/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-acpi.c
index 57be6342ba508..a90b05a269c36 100644
--- a/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-acpi.c
+++ b/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-acpi.c
@@ -169,7 +169,7 @@ int i2c_acpi_get_irq(struct i2c_client *client)
acpi_dev_free_resource_list(&resource_list);

if (irq == -ENOENT)
- irq = acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get(adev, 0);
+ irq = acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get(ACPI_COMPANION(&client->dev), 0);

return irq;
}

There was some earlier discussion about which device was suitable
for this call.

Thanks,
