Apologies I didn't answer your original question. This wasn't about
having partial support for multiple pmu devices. It is being used by
driver_find_device_by_of_node() in exynos_get_pmu_regmap_by_phandle()
to determine that the exynos-pmu device has probed and therefore a
pmu_context exists and a regmap has been created and can be returned
to the caller (as opposed to doing a -EPROBE_DEFER).

Is there some better/other API you recommend for this purpose? Just
checking pmu_context directly seems racy, so I don't think we should
do that.
