To be honest, I'm not sure I like this. If you want to have a simpler
helper, why not implement it using the lower-level helpers. Really the
only thing you're doing here is add a high-level helper that takes an
info struct, whereas previously the same would be done by storing the
info directly in the structure between allocation and addition of the
device.

Initially the implementation was following that of platform devices, I
see no reason to deviate from that. What you want here can easily be
done by something like:

	struct mipi_dsi_device *
	mipi_dsi_device_register_full(struct mipi_dsi_host *host,
				      const struct mipi_dsi_device_info *info)
	{
		struct mipi_dsi_device *dsi;

		dsi = mipi_dsi_device_alloc(host);
		if (IS_ERR(dsi))
			return dsi;

		dsi->dev.of_node = info->node;
		dsi->channel = info->channel;

		err = mipi_dsi_device_add(dsi);
		if (err < 0) {
			...
		}

		return dsi;
	}
