From: Lee Jones <lee.jones@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6b5c350648b857047b47acf74a57087ad27d6183 ] Until now, MFD has assumed all child devices passed to it (via mfd_cells) are to be registered. It does not take into account requests from Device Tree and the like to disable child devices on a per-platform basis. Well now it does.
