I'll resend patch 4/4.

The reason for splitting the files is because there are other models of
such SoC PMIC being worked on. These PMICs will have enough similarity
that we feel it's better to keep separate common code
(intel_soc_pmic_core, intel_soc_pmic_i2c) and model specific code
(intel_soc_pmic_crc and future intel_soc_pmic_xxx).
