Since this device is spawn from the syscon, should it not be
"depends on MFD_SYSCON"?

(No big deal, if you think this is right then go with it.)

What is this include for?

No #include <linux/regmap.h>?

Maybe some #includes are centralized to pinctrl-aspeed.h
I don't know, just make sure you don't have implicit includes.

Use:

regmap_update_bits(map,
                              desc->reg,
                              desc->mask,
                              pattern << __ffs->desc->mask);

Or something like that instead of reimplementing
mask-and-set. Regmap already knows how to do the
business.

(Applied everywhere in the driver where you have a
mask-and-set like this).

The expression core engine is still a complete mystery
for me, I will just trust you that it works as intended.
