Hi Stephen!
But the bigger question you have not answered is: “where should such an
auxiliar driver go in the kernel tree?” i.e. which directory?

One thing: could the "module" be a regulator?

IMHO that won't be acceptable.

How about a multifunction device driver (drivers/mfd)?

Other candidates could be drivers/soc or drivers/misc.

Could it be a power domain driver?
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_domain.txt

There are currently a deferred probing issue that might be a problem
depending on the module linking order:
