Having a copyright statement added here is likely required.
Something like

/*
 * Copyright (C) 2026 Rockchip Electronics Co., Ltd.
 *
 * Author: Chaoyi Chen <[email protected]>
 */

will suffice. While I hope it's never relevant for a driver this
small, explicit copyright statements in this form have a legal
effect in some jurisdictions like the US, where by law it
automatically dismisses the defense that the copyright holder
wasn't known.

Small nitpick: The explicit (struct device *) cast of data isn't
needed here. Just

    struct device *dev = data;

will work fine. The benefit is that if the type of "data" ever changes
(e.g. from void *data to const void *data) then we're not silencing
a warning/error through an explicit cast.

Nitpicking: the "done" label and "goto done" here is redundant.
You could remove the label and replace the goto with another
"return NOTIFY_OK;". There's no functional change here though.

Feel free to add yourself as MODULE_AUTHOR here. :)
