There is one more option, instead of passing the pm8008_data, we could 
pass the pdev->dev.parent and get the pm8008 chip data directly in the 
pm8008_get_regmap() like below


struct regmap *pm8008_get_regmap(const struct device *dev)
  {
      const struct pm8008_data *chip = dev_get_drvdata(dev);

      return chip->regulators_regmap;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pm8008_get_regmap);


By doing this we can avoid having declaration of pm8008_data also in the 
header. Please let me know if this looks good.

I didn't get what you meant here, could you please elaborate a bit?
