I backported this series for OpenBMC and posting those patches provoked
some feedback:

* A bug identified in patch 9/18 for the Nuvoton driver where we enable
  the OBE interrupt:

https://lore.kernel.org/openbmc/HK2PR03MB4371F006185ADBBF812A5892AE509@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

* A discussion on patch 10/18 about lifting the single-open constraint

https://lore.kernel.org/openbmc/CAPnigKku-EjOnV9gsmnXzH=XZxSU78iLeccNbsK8k2_4b4UwSg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

I need to do a v4 to fix the bug in the Nuvoton driver. Did you have any
feedback for the remaining patches or thoughts on the discussions linked
above?  I'd like to incorporate whatever I can into the series before
respinning.

Cheers,

Andrew
