OK. So... Out of the 7 patches Jochen sent originally, only 1 ([3/7] OF
helpers for the i2c API) went upstream. Am I correct?

Jochen, I'm a bit confused by the dependencies that exist - or not -
between these 7 patches you sent at once. I thought they had to be
applied in sequence but it seems not? And some of them should
apparently go through me i2c tree but others (e.g. [7/7]) not?

I would appreciate if you could summarize quickly which patches depend
on others in which way. If we can make smaller subsets of patches, that
will be easier for me to review and push upstream on my limited time.

Thanks,
