I just found this commit in Linus's git repo:

commit c185a9420bd1c645252249018e6887a968d3e1de
Author: Jean Delvare <khali@>
Date:   Sun Mar 20 14:50:53 2011 +0100

    i2c: Drop i2c_adapter.id
    
    There is no user left of i2c_adapter.id, so we can get rid of it.
    Finally! :)
    
And this comment from last June:

-What:  i2c_adapter.id
-When:  June 2011
-Why:   This field is deprecated. I2C device drivers shouldn't change their
-       behavior based on the underlying I2C adapter.


The lirc code includes several #ifdefs that test for the adapter id, so
the lirc devs *are* changing their driver behavior based on it, obviously.

Looks to me like lirc will need to be modified upstream for recent kernel
code.
