I haven't looked at it myself yet, but would it be hard to have a
devm_ variant of this function as well?
a non-devm managed function would add boilerplate to the meson-mx-sdhc-mmc code

also this may or may not simplify how to fetch the struct device
pointer for this use-case.
(that said, I only know about drivers for Amlogic related IP and there
the devm_ variant can be used, but I don't know about other potential
consumers of this new API)


Thank you!
Martin
