Yes, if uevent generated for the device is "platform:<name>" then
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(platform,...) will suffice. I am not sure how MFD
sets it up (OF modalias or platform), but you should be able to check
the format looking at the "uevent" attribute for your device in sysfs
(/sys/devices/bus/platform/...). 

Thanks.
