We should probably update the binding documentation for this as
well: mfd/wm831x.txt

Also I am not sure this needs to be implemented now, but what is
the plan regarding pdata systems? Generally the driver supports
both and it would be nice to know there is a way forward for that
even if we don't implement it yet.
