Is this select safe? I.e. does MFD_CROS_EC depend on anything else?
I'll remove it, since it isn't required, and it's true that it does
need other things.
Instead of droppign the dependency completely I think it should "depens
on MFD_CROS_EC"
OK, done.

Why is this done via a notifier instead of regular resume method?
Because we only call the notifer in resume when we were not waking on
a keyboard event. We use it to flush the keyboard. It was a late
change so there might be a better way, but this driver does not have a
resume handler.
Right and the question is why does not it have resume handler and why
you inventing your own resume infrastructure instead of using the
standard one.
I will fix that.

And if we don't find it?
Added error checking.

Huh? I'd expect the platform device be fully set up (including DT data)
before the driver is called.
This is a child of the mfd driver cros_ec, so I don't think that
works. Or maybe I'm just not sure how to plumb it in so it is
automatic. Or maybe I just need to add the id to the device info
below?
Who creates this device? Whoever does this should set up the
pdev->dev.of_node. This is not this driver's responsibility.

And then you add the id to the table below and matching is done
automatically.
OK I see - it comes from mfd and it is easy enough to make it do the
right thing.

Thanks for your comments and patience. I will send a new patch.

Regards,
Simon
