Again, platform devices are ONLY for actual platform devices. A PCI device is NOT a platform device, sorry. If MFD needs to be changed to handle non-platform devices, fine, but maybe what you really need to do here is make your own "bus" of individual devices and have drivers for them, as you can't have a "normal" PCI driver for these. Again, please stop abusing platform devices. greg k-h
