I see the 5.1-rc1 and 5.1-rc2 are out. Those contain the regmap-irq
changes the BD70528 MFD driver depends on. Would you like me to rebase
the series to some other tree (which tree/branch? I don't see updated
for-mfd-next branch in kernel.org yet) and resend it? Original patch
series was created on top of the regulator tree.
