[sashiko-bot at kernel.org]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] The driver unconditionally fails to probe on generic Khadas MCU boards (VIM1/VIM2/VIM3) due to a NULL pointer check on valid match data.

mfd: khadas-mcu: Add support for VIM4 MCU variant

This patch refactors the probe function to use per-variant values instead of
hardcoded globals. It adds dedicated regmap configuration, fan control register,
and duty-cycle levels for the VIM4 MCU variant. A new compatible string
"khadas,vim4-mcu" is introduced for this new device.

[Severity: High]
Does this code inadvertently break the probe for generic Khadas MCU boards
(VIM1/VIM2/VIM3)?

Because KHADAS_MCU_GENERIC evaluates to 0 in its enum, i2c_get_match_data() will
return a NULL pointer when matching "khadas,mcu" in khadas_mcu_probe() in
drivers/mfd/khadas-mcu.c. This will cause the check here to evaluate to true and
unconditionally abort the probe with -ENODEV.
