I have no strong opinions on this. When I discussed it with Mattias
who wrote much of the driver we concluded that the PRCMU drivers needs
a lot of shaping up. Mainly it may need to be split into two parts: one
which is a "pure" MFD device (register access part) one MFD firmware
interaction part, and then a platform-specific (U8500) part.

This would help getting code in more logical places.

For now I would suggest not moving stuff around, I thin Mattias is onto
cleaning up the structure as per above and we could be messing it up
for him, which is not good.

Yours,
