All cells have PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE specified and thus are registered
without an ID. I changed this bit to avoid overriding the
information, since I did not want to have PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE for
rk806.

Which means, you do not want PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE (-1), but
PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO (-2). The above path is the expected path
for PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE.

I didn't notice when working on rk806, but after analyzing it now:

Your patch effectively set the cells to PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO, because
you set all cells to PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE (-1) and additionally used
PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE (-1) for the devm_mfd_add_devices() call. But
that uses the sum of both IDs. Adding -1 to -1 is -2 and thus
PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO. This is of course very confusing and just
worked by chance. There are two options:

1. Modify all cells to use PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO instead of
PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE
2. Drop the .id from all cells and use PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO in the
call to devm_mfd_add_devices()

Note, that switching from PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE to PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO
modifies sysfs paths and thus might break people's scripts; that's why
I tried not to modify any existing platform. I will let you deal
with that, since I cannot even test any !rk806 platform supported by
this driver :)

Also mfd_add_device should probably get special handling for
PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE, just like it already has special handling
for PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO.
