This will be updated accordingly.

Have you ran `pahole`? It might suggest a better layout to save a few bytes.

These read better in slightly different split:

	struct ltm8054_ctl_pin_work *ctl_work =
		container_of_const(work, struct ltm8054_ctl_pin_work, work);
	struct ltm8054_priv *priv =
		container_of_const(ctl_work, struct ltm8054_priv, ctl_work);

Why not scoped_guard() from cleanup,h?

One line. It just 82 characters.

Ditto.

And perhaps use MILLI/KILO?

Besides str_write_read() from string_choices.h this should be dev_dbg().

scoped_guard()

Redundant assignment.

Return directly.

		if (!write)

	return 0;

Hmm... Are you sure about this?

Do we need this? I think "no". See below how.

Do devm-helpers.h APIs help with something here? Does
devm_add_action_or_reset() help with not covered cases?

Use devm_mutex_init() and don't forget the error check.

...to this no changes are needed.

Neither is this.
