Please use a single tab to indent config attributes, and a tab plus two spaces
for the help text.

Also, if 'I3C' is disabled but 'I2C' is enabled, unconditionally selecting
'REGMAP_I3C' could result in unmet dependencies. Should these selects be made
conditional?

Please use standard uppercase for macro names (e.g., 'P3H2X4X_REG_BITS').

This probe function and 'p3h2x4x_device_probe_i2c()' are nearly identical.
Could we refactor the common logic into a single generic helper function?

Why are you using PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE here instead of *_AUTO?

I3C?

This comment doesn't add anything.  Please remove it.

And this one.

Too many spaces.

This needs to be moved up a line.

It's linked with 'p3h2x4x_i2c_of_match', not 'p3h2x4x_i3c'.

Could we use standard uppercase for all macro names (e.g., 'P3H2X4X_')?

Which attributes do the child drivers actually use?
