Will you be adding any more devices, or is this the entirety of the
device?  If the latter, I suggest that this doesn't warrant being an
MFD.
Thats it. And others agree with you that this is not a good approach.
So in v2 there will be no MFD.

Thanks for confirming that the non-mfd way is the better approach.

MFD approach would have had the benefit of keeping this driver series architecture close to the HLCD one. This would have been easier to understand and use one SoC or another one from the AT91 product line....

Anyway, I'd wait for Boris' feedback for making a decision.
