As I said in Patch 2/8, I think this driver should depend on OF since
is now DT-only. Regulator drivers don't need to do this since they
already depend on MFD_MAX77686. With that change feel free to add:

Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier.martinez@...labora.co.uk>

Please also add my Reviewed-by tag to Patch 2/8 since I just noticed
that I forgot to add it.

Best regards,
Javier
