Just got back from my vacation this week, so sorry about the late reply.

It indeed looks like you've addressed my comments on v2, but I still
have few comments below. Just minor nits.

I try to indent continuation lines at least two tabs further (at least
when not matching open parentheses) which tends to improve readability
and conforms better to the coding standard.

Perhaps this can now be simplified as 

	if (!emif_instance)
		return -EINVAL;

since when the driver has been successfully bound all fields would have
been initialised.

Use -ENODEV for consistency?

And this would also be more readable as simply !emif_instance.

Nothing is of course preventing the remove() callback from racing with
the global functions above, but I'd still prefer to reset emif_instance
before releasing the memory.

In fact, given the register access in ti_emif_get_mem_type() you may
even want to clear emif_instance before the pm_runtime_put_sync().

Thanks,
