Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] mfd: aaeon: Add SRG-IMX8P MCU driver
Add Multi-Function Device (MFD) driver for the Aaeon SRG-IMX8P
embedded controller. This driver provides the core I2C communication
interface and registers child devices (GPIO and watchdog controllers).
The MCU firmware version is queried during probe and logged for
diagnostic purposes. All I2C transactions are serialized using a mutex
to ensure proper communication with the microcontroller.
