Sorry if I usurped your work!

That's expected behavior actually.  You have two nodes in DT named the
same thing and at the same address.  This error is due to the fact that
all devices are put in '/bus/platform/devices/' with a name made from
the unit address and name specified in DT.  There's no other unique
information used to differentiate the devices.

If you simply change the names in DT, it works.  Example follows:

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

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

	qcom,pm8941-revid@100 {
		compatible = "qcom,qpnp-revid";
		reg = <0x100>;
	};
};

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

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

	qcom,pm8841-revid@100 {
		compatible = "qcom,qpnp-revid";
		reg = <0x100>;
	};
};


[...] qcom,qpnp-revid 100.qcom,pm8841-revid: PM8841 v2.0 options: 0, 0, 2, 2
[...] qcom,qpnp-revid 100.qcom,pm8941-revid: PM8941 v3.0 options: 2, 0, 0, 0

Whether this should be "fixed" in the device/bus/sysfs core, I don't
know, but it isn't specifically an issue with this driver, and there's
little-to-nothing I can do to fix it here.
