With capital letter?
Are you sure?
Also I'm asking this here to make sure that you will make sure the users of it
will know without reading source code.

Seems you misunderstand how C language works. The idea is that you need to
include _explicitly_ all library / etc headers that your code is using.
The above is a hackish way to achieve that.

Do not use of_*() in a new code for the drivers.
There are only few exceptions and this driver is not one of them.

It makes more sense to update so easier to get the value and units from
the value.

I meant the bitmap type (as of bitmap.h APIs).

Yes. And make it firmware (which may be ACPI/DT or something else).

Does input subsystem parse the (some of) device properties already?

Hmm... seems there is no existing API like that, but still you have bulk
operations.
$ git grep -n clk_bulk.*\( -- include/linux/clk.h

Yes, and yours is a duplication of a such.

return dev_err_probe(...);
or
ret = dev_err_probe(... PTR_ERR(...), ...);
Btw, most of your questions can be answered by looking into the lately added
drivers in the input subsystem.

What do you mean?
But I guess somebody already mentioned devm_add_action_or_reset().

No, I meant specifically emphasized line.
