Actually the MFD and other subsystems are quite decoupled already and support sharing drivers for common IP block. The problem is that we develop drivers in a coupled way. This is not only issue of this particular set of drivers. Others were developed in a same way. So instead I would be happy to see this driver developed in the decoupled way so existing RTC driver could be reused. If this requires changing existing MFD driver like max77686 then please go ahead. I may provide testing for that purpose. Something similar I made recently to the max77693 and max77843. Both devices have different parent MFD drivers but share some of the specific subsystem drivers: regulator and input/haptic. > > > + > + rtc->irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, 0); > + ret = devm_request_threaded_irq(&pdev->dev, rtc->irq, NULL, > + max77620_rtc_irq, IRQF_ONESHOT | IRQF_EARLY_RESUME, > >> Why early resume? > > When we go on suspend, the interrupts are masked by framework.

Okay, this is quite common issue and I think this can be solved by disabling the IRQ in suspend: http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/mfd/max77843.c#L205 IMHO this would be preferred way because you won't be moving device suspend/resume callbacks to a syscore level.
