Not sure I've seen this bundled with an MFD driver before.
Please separate them into their own patches.

Can this come later?
It would save on the goto dance.

What has happened if we get here?
Perhaps a comment would be useful?

Why are you using 'hotplug' here?
ch341_devs is empty right?
So no child devices are registered.
In which case this is not (yet) an MFD and cannot be accepted.
Please add the children.

I'm not even sure what this means. Should be:
