I was waiting to hear Thierry's thoughts. However, I am unconvinced
that you need an MFD driver for this and refuse to take a shell (read
"pointless") one on an "if we ever ..." clause.
Will you break backwards capability though? I'm not sure you will.
Old DTBs will still use 'simple-mfd' and probe the devices in the
normal way. *If* you introduce an MFD driver at a later date then the
old DTB will miss out the *new* functionality, which is expected and
accepted.
