I understand, but the Fixes tag must reflect what commit introduced the breakage,
so either keep a single patch but list all commits introducing the MMC, SD & SDIO nodes
on the 3 families, or split in 3 and specify the commit introducing the MMC, SD & SDIO
node on each family.

I'll prefer the later.

If the patch isn't applicable for older kernels, it doesn't matter as the stable team
will only apply the fix on a tree if it applies and builds.
If you target an older release you can submit them a patch reworked to apply
correctly if the original patch is already only Linus master tree.

And don't forget adding the Tested-by tags.

Thanks,
Neil
