What's the point of this mutex ?
AFAICT, it's only ever used in the init path which is serialized by
itself.

ioremaps can fail.

Uurg, this is convoluted. What's wrong with doing:
int ret = -ENODEV;
for (....) {
if (check_signature()) {
ret = 0;
break;
}
}
That way the code becomes readable and we really do not need a
printout when the kernel is configured for multiple platforms and
runs on a !TS board. Also you would print out that nonsense if your
signature array has more than one entry for each non matching
one. Pretty pointless.

So we store a constant value in a data structure and the sole purpose
is to display that constant value in sysfs file. Interesting feature.

So you create 12 sysfs entries to export boolean features and a
constant value. I don't care much, but this looks like massive
overkill.

Shouldn't you check the busy bit _BEFORE_ writing into the converter?
Also initiating the conversion and then bailing out if it did not
complete in some micro seconds is kinda strange. What's wrong with
that hardware? And how does it ever recover?

What's the point of this empty release function ? The device is never
released.
