Nope.  Not happening.

It's not appropriate to dump a 1000+ line source file into MFD without
a thorough review.  For starters, the 100's of lines of code which
support the bespoke IPC APIs should remain within the 'platform'
domain.

It's okay to move the subordinate device registration into MFD, but it
will need to be converted *whilst* transferring it, rather than the
dump/edit method currently implemented.
