The only way to probe the driver left is to use platform_data. It is
done from the MFD driver. If you prefer, I can test for NULL here and
return.

I'm not sure what you meani, pdev->dev.parent and at91wdt_miscdev.parent
are not the same thing. I didn't touch the code below but I believe
there is no reason to pass in the probe twice and return -EBUSY.
