I would prefer if they were separated out so that I can apply them to separate branches, in keeping with arm-soc requirements. The branches can depend on each other which is how any dependencies can be handled. At this point I am thinking of merging the soc branch, with this series added, into the pinmux branch and then applying the r8a73a4 pfc patches to the result. > Regardless, this r8a73a4 SoC V3 series depends on the following patch > to compile: > [PATCH/RFC] ARM: shmobile: Disallow PINCTRL without GPIOLIB > > Laurent seems OK with the patch above, how about you?

I think I will take it into my tree as this series relies on it.
