Looking at the Sashiko comments for this series. device_node_to_regmap()
has this note in drivers/mfd/syscon.c:

/**
 * device_node_to_regmap() - Get or create a regmap for specified device node
 * @np: Device tree node
 *
 * Get a regmap for the specified device node. If there's not an existing
 * regmap, then one is instantiated. This function should not be used if the
 * device node has a custom regmap driver or has resources (clocks, resets) to
 * be managed. Use syscon_node_to_regmap() instead for those cases.
 *
 * Return: regmap ptr on success, negative error code on failure.
 */

Should this be moved to syscon_node_to_regmap()?

Looking at the Sashiko comments, is this remove callback really needed?
