I only skimmed this, but have a few of comments below.

First of all, why do these live in drivers/platform and why don't use
the mfd subsystem to implement this driver (instead of rolling your own
mfd-implementation)?

You don't strictly depend on SERIAL_DEV_CTRL_TTYPORT even if I
understand why you added it (that controller will default to Y when
serdev is enabled soon).

Also this is not the entry that depends on serdev, RAVE_SP_CORE is the
driver that depends on it.

I think this one can just be removed, and like for normal mfd drivers,
have the "child drivers" depend on the mfd driver (e.g. RAVE_SP_CORE)
below.

And here you select on mfd core even though you currently don't seem to
use it at all.

I think you should use the compatible strings directly here rather than
use these defines.

You must close the serdev before returning on errors.
