Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:

Pre-existing issues:
- [Medium] Hard-coded cell IDs are used in `axp806_cells` and `axp809_cells` instead of leveraging `platform_device->id` or `PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO`, violating MFD subsystem guidelines.

mfd: axp20x: Constify axp313 and axp717 cells

This commit constifies the mfd_cells arrays for the axp313 and axp717 chips.
It aligns their declarations with the rest of the supported chips where
the arrays are properly marked as const.

[Severity: Medium]
This is a pre-existing issue, but is it safe to use hard-coded cell IDs
like 1 and 2 for the axp20x-regulator cells in the axp806_cells and
axp809_cells arrays?

The MFD subsystem guidelines require using PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO for automatic
cell indexing, or platform_device->id if numbering is explicitly needed.

Can this hard-coded cell ID usage lead to device naming collisions in sysfs
or driver load failures?
