Just a small reminder that this device is probably the MFD device, not
the device created for regulator driver. (Regmap is created for MFD).
For prints this only means we're issuing prints as if MFD device
generated them, right? I'm not sure it is the best approach - but I'll
leave this to Mark & others to judge :)
