Thanks. This is exactly what I have planed to do :-)

I think that this will not going to work. For example in this particular
case, both controllers have "qcom,qpnp-revid" peripheral which is
located at offset 0x100.

And the result is:

[    0.963944] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/bus/platform/devices/100.revid'

DT looks like this:

spmi {
	compatible = "qcom,spmi-pmic-arb";
	reg-names = "core", "intr", "cnfg";
	reg = <0xfc4cf000 0x1000>,
	      <0xfc4cb000 0x1000>,
	      <0xfc4ca000 0x1000>;

	interrupt-names = "periph_irq";
	interrupts = <0 190 0>;

	qcom,ee = <0>;
	qcom,channel = <0>;

	#address-cells = <2>;
	#size-cells = <0>;

	interrupt-controller;
	#interrupt-cells = <4>;

	pm8941@0 {
		compatible = "qcom,pm8941";
		reg = <0x0 SPMI_USID>;

		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <0>;

		revid@100 {
			compatible = "qcom,qpnp-revid";
			reg = <0x100 0x100>;
		};
	};

	pm8841@4 {
		compatible = "qcom,pm8941";
		reg = <0x4 SPMI_USID>;

		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <0>;

		revid@100 {
			compatible = "qcom,qpnp-revid";
			reg = <0x100 0x100>;
		};
	};
};

Any suggestions?

Thanks, 
Ivan
