The platform driver is dead code. It is not used by DT platforms since
commit bdb0066df9 ("mfd: syscon: Decouple syscon interface from
platform devices") which said:
For non-DT based platforms, this patch keeps syscon platform driver
structure so that syscon can be probed and such non-DT based drivers
can use syscon_regmap_lookup_by_pdev API and access regmap handles.
Once all users of "syscon_regmap_lookup_by_pdev" migrated to DT based,
we can completely remove platform driver of syscon, and keep only helper
functions to get regmap handles.
The last user of syscon_regmap_lookup_by_pdevname() was removed in 2018.
syscon_regmap_lookup_by_pdevname() was then removed in 2019, but that
commit failed to remove the rest of the platform driver.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
