I guess you want to do s/pwm driver/PWM driver/? Fine for me, thanks.

Well, that's a subjective view. There are reasons to prefer several
small patches over one big one, too. A small patch can be indiviually
reviewed, so the "Reviewed-by: Alex Elder ..." tag only goes to the one
change that he actually looked at and if later a fix to the sifive
driver is to be backported to stable, the stable maintainers just pick
the sifive one instead of one big patch.

Did you skip the sl28cpld patch, or squash the fixup I sent in the reply
to Michael Walle?

Best regards and thanks,
Uwe
