Didn't notice this before...  it might be worth bringing it forward
since the PMICs tend to cross a wide range of kernel subsystems.  This
means that it's often easiest to merge over several release cycles which
can lead to long delays.  Getting at least the MFD core part of the
driver merged sooner should help with that a lot since by the time it
becomes a priority the shared part may already be in mainline.
