This leads to hang on freeing devm resources, when unloading modules.
Platform driver version intended to be used as MFD sub device, where mfd
creates a dummy i2c client, and passes it to max17042 via platform data.
Sequence is: insmod MFD; insmod max17042; rmmod max17042; rmmod MFD; hang here.
My guess is that it is caused by a new pointer to the i2c-client. New pointer
created at `platform_device_add_data` function call in `mfd_add_device`.
Since C is pass by value, new pointer is assigned to platform device data.
