who uses this intel_sdw_driver? I would assumed someone would register
this with the core...

So you are invoking driver probe here.. That is typically role of driver
core to do that.. If we need that, make driver core do that for you!
That reminds me I am missing match code for master driver...
So we seem to be somewhere is middle wrt driver probing here! IIUC this
is not a full master driver, thats okay, but then it is not
completely transparent either...
I was somehow thinking that the driver will continue to be
'platform/acpi/of' driver and master device abstraction will be
handled in the core (for example see how the busses like i2c handle
this). The master device is created and used to represent but driver
probing etc is not done
Thoughts..?
