Why are you dropping the call to pci_request_regions()?  Shouldn't you
do something similar in the new mfd driver?

When you are use the the BAR 0 resource as mem_base argument to
mfd_add_devices() later on, it will be split into child resources for
the child devices, but they will not be related to the IORESOURCE_MEM
root tree (iomem_resource) anymore.  I don't think that is how it is
supposed to be done, as it will allow random other drivers to request
the exact same memory area.

How/where is the memory resources inserted in the root IORESOURCE_MEM
resource (iomem_resource)?  Or is it allowed to use resources without
inserting it into the root tree?

Maybe use devm_platform_ioremap_resource() instead, which handles both
platform_get_resource() and ioremap() in one call..
