Are you sure this is what you want to do?  We don't usually support
'boards' per say.  Instead we support 'devices', then pull each of
those devices together using some h/w description mechanism.

Board files are so yesterday!

Besides, this is MFD, where we support single pieces of silicon which
happen to support multiple devices.  I definitely don't want to support
boards here.

You might want to re-think the naming and your (sales) pitch.

Why have you included this?  I don't see the use of the MFD framework
anywhere.  So what makes this an MFD?

I'm going to stop here, as I think I need more of an explanation so
what you're trying to achieve with this driver.
