That's primarily for describing the flow between different hardware modules
in hardware. I think in this case we only have software flow and in my
opinion this hardware is a classical case of multi-function device and
should be implemented as such. The MFD would take care of things like
interrupt multiplexing and resource allocation while each function gets its
own driver making use of the facilities provided by the MFD.
