There's a question.
As I know, it's not the same chip series.
The rt5033 is submitted from Samsung at 2015.
The driver data is also defined in header file.

Do you still suggest to do the merge?
Even in our internal, it's difficult to find a rt5033 EVB for testing.

And one more question is the binding. If yes, for the binding, I need to add
rt5033 related.....

Actually, it's a tough work.
