I don't think this is a PMIC device. the RTC restart and 8051
configure register share one
common range address, and the address have other function that power management.

Thanks,I will fix it.

This device has multiple different functions, because they have 8051 subsystem,
so I named him "subsys". I will carefully consider and rename it.

ok,I will fix it.

I'am sorry for that other drivers have not been implemented yet. I
will implement it
after rtc. They have the same address range, so I use mfd to describe them.
