More devices are cropping up requiring only Regmap initialisation and child registration functionality. We currently only support that if all required devices are represented by their own Device Tree nodes complete with compatible strings. However, not everyone is happy with adding empty nodes that provide no additional device information into the Device Tree. Rather than have a plethora of mostly empty, function-less drivers in MFD, we'll support those simple cases in here instead via MFD cells.
