Is there any small possibility to not make it an omap specific driver?
There are other boards with sii9022 out there. imx5x dev boards could
receive a daughter board with this chip (both sold by Freescale) and
efikamx platform has it too. I think that some old msm platforms has it
too.
I've not compared the code of the drivers and don't know how the sii9022
works but would be annoying to have 2 or more drivers for the same piece
of HW. imho, it would be nice if it could be avoided.

Thanks,
Arnaud
