The right thing is to fix the drivers IMHO.

This is wrong, struct i2c_adapter::retries is for restarting a transfer
on arbitration loss.

Please don't. If you want to do handle a device in a special way, invent
a device tree property, add it to your machine description and add
handling here. Using of_machine_is_compatible + base address of the
device to decide about configuration is a no go.
