FYI, the reason I left editing and subsequently sent by mistake was
that I had to jump out to look at the subject in order to find the aim
of this patch.

What's a 'feed' register?

Also, 'offset' is a generic property that is undocumented in this
context. *If* there is no other generic interface to achieve whatever
it is you're trying to achieve, then you probably want a vendor
specific property. However, I'm pretty sure there will be other
means.

Does the 'feed' register change from platform to platform?

Why don't you have a 'reg' property?

Meaning all of your drviers/mfd changes.

Please use the correct #define instead of -1.

Not sure what Wim's view are, but it's usually better *not* to put
filenames in C files.
