Interesting, so this system will have two cros-ec, one connected via
spi or i2c to the soc and another one using the M4 within the M8183?

Actually, on some systems, we have chained EC's (ie cros_ec and
cros_pd). The way we actually handle the name to access the different
ECs is create a mfd cell with their specific platform data, I am
wondering if we can do the same here (see drivers/mfd/cros_ec.c)

I think that right now that's our main problem, how to properly
instantiate all this stuff. One approach that I like is the one used
in the TI PRU ICSS, they create a pruss_soc_bus driver with the
purpose to allow the child nodes to be bound. I suspect that something
similar would work, but I need to look in more detail. See [1]
