That sounds totally reasonable, I agree that we should try to sort
this out and if we do this should be applicable on pm8xxx as well(?).

My concern was that further discussions would hinder the ability of
actually committing the pm8x41 container driver and that is in my eyes
blocking integration of drivers for the pmic blocks.
