You're right. sunxi_rsb_bus is self contained (not exported) in sunxi_rsb.c,
so it's safe to assume that the devices going through sunxi_rsb_device_probe()
and sunxi_rsb_device_remove() are indeed sunxi_rsb slave devices.

I'll remove the checks from both functions.

This seems easy enough. I'll follow the patterns found in linux/regmap.h.

Thanks!
