When I read this function (in the patch), if pmic_i2c_board_info.irq
is non-zero, omap3_twl_init() and omap4_twl_init() are called.

So my question was, for the case when PMIC is not TWL family. Then,
is checking ".irq" sufficient to prevent the execution of twl specific
functions.

 void __init omap_pmic_late_init(void)
 {
 	/* Init the OMAP TWL parameters (if PMIC has been registerd) */
 	if (!pmic_i2c_board_info.irq)
 		return;
 
 	omap3_twl_init();
 	omap4_twl_init();
 }

Shouldn't we check for some "signature" or equiv, before calling the
PMIC specific init? This "signature" can be set when the PMIC is
registered?

Another simplification would be to register the PMIC specific init
function itself during registration; and call here.
