Hello,

Can we not have the PRU UIO also as a part of the MFD framework.
I know that the UIO is not really a device, but I feel its incorrect to register the same device twice. Instead we can have a single entry as the MFD framework and the UIO, as a child device, based upon the MFD driver APIs.

All that we need to do is add an entry into the da8xx_pruss_devices structure
and the MFD driver will do the rest to get the UIO probe called.

This patch adds the platform device and assignes the platform resources
for the PRUSS mfd driver.

+struct platform_device da8xx_pruss_dev = {
Can you please rename this to da8xx_pruss_mfddev?
+ .name = "da8xx_pruss",
Can you please rename name string as pruss_mfd? This will help to
base my UIO patches on top of yours.
+ .id = -1,
+ .num_resources = ARRAY_SIZE(da8xx_pruss_resources),
+ .resource = da8xx_pruss_resources,
+};
+
+int __init da8xx_register_pruss(struct da8xx_pruss_devices *pruss_device)
Please rename this to da8xx_register_pruss_mfd

Thanks,
Pratheesh
