I hope Linus can leave his Tested-by under this series then.

Are you targeting the GPIO branch with this or pinctrl? I guess GPIO
so I'll need Linus' Acks under the pinctrl patches.

Please advise the relevant maintainers that they should provide an
immutable branch for these series once they're queued in their
respective trees.
