As you mentioned elsewhere in this thread, this series "fixes" the
problem related to the "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" compatible.

I know, I said I would drop discussion of that compatible, but bear
with me for a second.  :-)

The "problem" is that the devices for multiple mfd child nodes with
the same compatible value of "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" will all have
a pointer to the first child node.  At the moment the same child
of_node being used by more than one device does not cause any
incorrect behavior.

Just in case the driver for "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" is modified
in a way that the child of_node needs to be distinct for each
device, and that changes gets back ported, it would be useful
to have Fixes: tags for this patch series.

So, at your discretion (and I'll let you worry about the correct
Fixes: tag format), this series fixes:
