can you please rephrase this?

I understand you want to register multiple devices, how is this
going to work in hardware?

what exactly is status, is it a counter? If so, please call it
count or similar.

"status" as such was indicating that the device is busy, i.e. the
device exists. If you want to use it as a counter, then make
another variable, u8, possibly.

I think rather than dev_err() it should be a dev_warn() (or
dev_info() as the message doesn't sound very threatening).

dev_err() should be normally followed by a failure. Perhaps to
make it sound more as a warning the message should be:

	"client %d is already registere in 0x%02x\n"
