+config MFD_ACER_A500_EC + tristate "Embedded Controller driver for Acer Iconia Tab A500" + depends on (I2C_TEGRA && ARCH_TEGRA_2x_SOC) || COMPILE_TESTThis seems to also depend on I2C and OF. Perhaps I2C_TEGRA and ARCH_TEGRA_2x_SOC imply that, but it could lead to build failures with COMPILE_TEST=y.
Hello, Lubomir! You're right about the I2C because it could be compiled as a loadable module, good catch! The OF seems should fine as-is. ...

+static struct a500_ec *a500_ec_scratch;If this is only used for power_off, please rename it. I've been told to do so in my driver: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200519104933.GX271301@dell/ (local)
I don't mind to rename the variable, but not sure whether it will be a worthwhile change since _scratch is also a common naming scheme among MFD drivers. Please see max77620_scratch for example, which I added about a year ago. ...

+int a500_ec_read_locked(struct a500_ec *ec_chip, + const struct a500_ec_cmd *cmd_desc)Any reason you're exporting these to the cell drivers instead of using regmap? I think regmap would also help you with the locking if you set .lock() and .unlock() callbacks in regmap_config.
Yes, perhaps you're right. Right now I can't recall what stopped me from using regmap. I'll give it a shot for v2, thank you for the suggestion! ...

Then the Tegra's default CPU soft-reset handler will be used for rebooting [1]. [1] https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.9-rc1/source/drivers/soc/tegra/pmc.c#L977 ...

Okay! I'll change this in v2, thanks. ...

This should be a good idea, especially combined with the regmap, thanks!
