So if smartreflex driver gets registered first the request_irq will happen only when class driver gets registered. On the other hand if class driver gets registered first then the request_irq will happen from here. The thing to notice is that there is only a duplicate attempt. Actual double registrations does not happen.
OK, thanks for the clarification.
Then, the two blocks of code that reqest_irq + init_enable should be
combined into a subroutine (with comment) called from both places.
This will help avoid the confusion I had and increase readability.
