Indeed. What about removal? Aren't you remobing entire directory
structure on first device removal?

But also dev_dbg are not visible in error or warn level logs. If this is
not an error, then indeed dev_dbg could be fine. But errors should be
verbose.

git grep -i "section mismatch" leads to lib/Kconfig.debug and
DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH

As with every const... Do you need lvts_ctrl to be non-const? If yes,
then how do you handle multiple devices (singleton)?
