Delta TN48M switches have a Lattice CPLD that serves
multiple purposes including being a GPIO expander.
So lets add the MFD core driver for it.

Did you have a look at mfd/simple-mfd-i2c.c?

Yes, that was my first idea but we have a requirement to expose CPLD
information via debugfs as there are userspace applications using it.
And simple-mfd-i2c does not allow us to do so.

Mh, last time Lee wasn't very fond of having a driver that just 
populates
sub-drivers while doing almost nothing itself. See

That being said, I'd also like to expose our CPLD version, but until now
haven't found a good solution.
