The MEN 14F021P00 Board Management Controller provides an
I2C interface to the host to access the feature implemented in the BMC.
The BMC is a PIC Microntroller assembled on CPCI Card from MEN Mikroelektronik
and on a few Box/Display Computer.

Added MFD Core driver, supporting the I2C communication to the device.

The MFD driver currently supports the following features:
	- Watchdog
	- LEDs

I personally would prefer if you would retain the original API, which returns both value
and error code as return value. I don't see the benefit of changing the API as you did -
it just complicates the code.
