That misses the LED, RTC and watchdog drivers. Making the match more
general with a leading * in the filename is just asking for false

Those are not PMICs and therefore not relevant here. Since I am the

entry for the drivers within it would be a bit redundant. The CODEC
drivers for the PMICs are included here for completeness more than
anything else.
