It seems wrong to have to select both MFD_SUPPORT and MFD_CORE. Can't
the MFD subsystem be cleaned up so that subdrivers have a single symbol
to select beyond their own?

I don't quite get the point of MFD_CORE. MFD_SUPPORT could be made
tristate, and MFD_CORE dropped (and then MFD_SUPPORT renamed to
MFD_CORE to minimize the changes.) This is exactly how I2C support is
implemented, for example.
