The end result is correct since, as you assumed,
mfd_add_hotplug_devices() handles that case.

Just discussed this with Lee. The original patch adding the helper was
on top of the fix, but the latter never made it into mfd-next.

Not sure what happened to the git history after your merge, though,
since commit

b6684228726c ("mfd: viperboard: Fix platform-device id collision")

no longer shows up when doing

git log origin/master -- drivers/mfd/viperboard.c

and the diff of

1ab589c72ef6 ("mfd: Use mfd_add_hotplug_devices() helper")

looks like the first patch has never been applied, even though it is
listed when doing "git log origin/master".

Johan
