When attempting to configure this driver on a Nexus 5 phone (msm8974), setting up the dummy i2c bus for TX_P0 would fail due to an -EBUSY error. The downstream MSM kernel sources [1] shows that the proper value for TX_P0 is 0x78, not 0x70, so correct the value to allow device probing to succeed.

This bothers me little. There are no upstream users, grepping android sources suggests that both values can be used [1][2] (grep for "#define TX_P0"), moreover there is code suggesting both values can be valid [3].
Could you verify datasheet which i2c slave addresses are valid for this chip, if both I guess this patch should be reworked.
This address is 0x78 on my Nexus 5. Given [3] above it looks like we need to support both addresses. What do you think about moving these addresses into device tree?
Assuming that the device supports different addresses (I can't validate that as I don't have access to the datasheet), and different addresses need to be used on different systems, then the address to be used needs to be provided by the firmware (DT in this case). Two options are possible, either specifying the address explicitly in the device's DT node, or specifying free addresses (in the form of a white list or black list) and allocating an address from that pool. The latter has been discussed in a BoF at the Linux Plumbers Conference last week, https://linuxplumbersconf.org/event/4/contributions/542/.
The downstream and upstream kernel sources divide these addresses by two to get the i2c address. Here's the code in upstream:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/analog... https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/analog...
I'm not sure why the actual i2c address isn't used in this code.
The ANX7802/12/14/16 has a slave I2C bus that provides the interface to access or control the chip from the AP. The I2C slave addresses used to control the ANX7802/12/14/16 are 70h, 72h, 7Ah, 7Eh and 80h. Every address allows you to access to different registers of the chip and AFAICS is not configurable.
I don't think these addresses should be configured via DT but for the driver itself.
My wild guess is that the ANX7808 has different addresses, but I don't have the datasheet of this version.
I'm able to communicate with the 7808 on my Nexus 5 using the 0x78 address. Given that the addresses appear to be fixed per model, maybe it makes sense to drop the address #defines and add the addresses to the data pointer in the driver's of_match_table like so:
static const struct of_device_id anx78xx_match_table[] = { { .compatible = "analogix,anx7808", .data = PTR_TO_7808_ADDRS }, { .compatible = "analogix,anx7812", .data = PTR_TO_781X_ADDRS }, { .compatible = "analogix,anx7814", .data = PTR_TO_781X_ADDRS }, { .compatible = "analogix,anx7818", .data = PTR_TO_781X_ADDRS }, { /* sentinel */ }, };
With given feedback from other users and lack of datasheets for chips (except anx7814) we can try this approach.
