As you mentioned, incase of TWL4030/5030, we do not need any hook. However if some other PMIC is used that genuinely needs this hook, then shouldn't SR throw up this warning? As SR module is independent of PMIC, it cannot distinguish them. So I feel this warning should be present probably reworded better like "No PMIC hook registered to init smartreflex. Either this PM IC does not need SR init or PMIC hook is missing".
