What's more, you have dependency between patches, so bindings cannot go via separate trees: mfd and rtc. You need to make this *EXPLICIT* in the cover letter or patch changelog. I do not see any resources in MFD block, so why having it as separate node? What other devices you did not describe here? You mentioned restart and 8051, so where are they? Which driver implements them? Best regards, Krzysztof
