Hello Samuel,

I see no further comments on this series. Does this mean you are ok with
the patch or didn't you find the time looking at it?

This patch can go via the mfd tree or I can push this via my i.MX tree.
Going via the i.MX tree makes life a bit easier for me because we do not
run into merge order dependencies. Please let me know what you prefer.

Sascha
