If that is the case, wouldn't it make more sense to have separate drivers,
one per functionality, plus an mfd driver to bind them all together ?

It'd be an option, but I don't think there's a huge benefit - the
functionality's reasonably related and there's no real internal bus
architecture on the device.

On the other side it is much cleaner. drivers/mfd/lpc_sch.c and drivers/mfd/lpc_ich.c
are good examples.
