No, it is not a generic node name. Please read my reply again.

This does not explain why you need simple-mfd. simple-mfd is not for
providing a register base mapping for other devices.

All of these should fail on checkpatch which points that you either did
not run it or ignored the result.
Please run checkpatch on all your submissions to Linux kernel and be
sure that there is no warning or error.
