Hi Mark,

Sorry for the late response.
[1] is the v1 on which we had some discussion. I hope that can help
recall the issue below.

I understand your point. But like I described previously [1], if we
still use the current solution (i.e. use devm_of_platform_populate()
to register MFD subdevices), a compatible string is required. I'm open
to switching to other solutions, do you have some suggestions?

Thanks,
