Hi Krzysztof,

I believe U-Boot's implementation is correct. As per simple-mfd binding:

```
simple-mfd" - this signifies that the operating system should
  consider all subnodes of the MFD device as separate devices akin to how
  "simple-bus" indicates when to see subnodes as children for a simple
  memory-mapped bus.
```

This reads to me as "if you want sub nodes to be populated as devices
you need this."

In our case there are "clock" and "reset" node sub nodes which should be
probed as regular device, so it's true for us.

Linux managed to work without "simple-mfd" only because clock subsystem
is bypassing regular OF population process. Semantically we need this.

Besides Linux as upstream of devicetree source had accepted U-Boot
only stuff here, such as "bootph-all" property.

Thanks
