At the moment trying to register a second AXP chip makes the probe fail, as some sysfs registration fails due to a duplicate name: ...

This is because we use PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE for the mfd_add_devices() call, which would number the child devices in the same 0-based way, even for the second (or any other) instance. Use PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO instead, which automatically assigns non-conflicting device numbers.
