Hi Dmitry,

Can you please help to comment if this looks good for you?
I actually have pushed a V7 to address your last comment before you made 
this one.
V7 change: 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20230927-pm8xxx-vibrator-v7-1-b5d8c92ce818@quicinc.com/, 
just want to know how to move forward.
Thanks

Fenglin
