UGH! IMO this should have not been accepted without the support code.
I think this MFD driver is complete over kill to try to commonize features
into a MFD device. The LM3631 and LM3632 seem to be the only true MFD devices
here since they provide regulator support.
The LM3697 fault monitoring is only for test purposes according to the data
sheet. Not sure the customer can trust this or they should be warned at boot
that the Fault monitoring is for test purposes only.
And I think Jacek pointed out that the bindings references in this bindings
don't even exist.
I am thinking we need to deprecate this MFD driver and consolidate these drivers
in the LED directory as we indicated before. I did not find any ti-lmu support
code.
ti-lmu common core code and then the LED children appending the feature differentiation.
Need some maintainer weigh in here.
