Instead of droppign the dependency completely I think it should "depens
on MFD_CROS_EC"

Right and the question is why does not it have resume handler and why
you inventing your own resume infrastructure instead of using the
standard one.

Who creates this device? Whoever does this should set up the
pdev->dev.of_node. This is not this driver's responsibility.
And then you add the id to the table below and matching is done
automatically.
