What is the purpose of pwrseq_register/unregister()? The pwrseq
structs are added and removed from pwrseq_list, but besides that
pwrseq_list is not used.

Looks like this is a remainder from the ancestor of this code
(drivers/mmc/core/pwrseq.c) which uses the list to avoid having
multiple pwrseq instances for the same device.
