Hello Eric,

Thanks for the comments! I'll be addressing these in patch series v8
- except the regmap wrapper one which will be taken care of by another
patch set.

I am sorry but I didn't quite get the point here. Could you please
explain what did you expect to be added here?
It's a nit but It is a good practice to specify that the last entry is
a sentinel. Just this.

+static const struct of_device_id bd71837_of_match[] = {
+       { .compatible = "rohm,bd71837", .data = (void *)0},
+       { /* sentinel */ }
+};
I would not say this is "good practice" at all.

We all know what empty brackets mean.  No need for obvious comments.

When authors put this, I let it go because "sentinel" is a cool word -
and nothing more! ;)
