I think you are.  At least for me, with the latest Emacs 25
snapshot I have (2015/12/10), `i deactivate-mark' shows two
index entries, and `,' bounces between them.  They are:
(1) deactivate-mark, the function, and (2) deactivate-mark-hook,
a variable.  Variable `deactivate-mark' is not one of them.

Do you really see something different?
