Mh, the former doesn't provide a regmap, correct? Most MMIO drivers 
won't
need it, but this is an I2C device. So yes, I could come up with a
"simple-regmap" proposal. I guess that should go into drivers/mfd/ 
because
it is more than just adding one line, i.e. you would have to configure 
the
regmap and its different interfaces.

But how would you model that version check below for example? (Not that 
I'm
very keen of it.)

I wanted to store the regmap somewhere, but because there are no users, 
I'll
drop that.
