Thanks for your series!

After applying the first patch (the revert), the issue reported in
[1] is back, as expected.
After applying both patches, applying[A]/unapplying[B]/reapplying[C]
overlay [4] works as without this series, so
Tested-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx>

Note that the state of /sys/class/devlink/ after [C] is still not the
same as after [A], as reported before in [5]:
  - platform:e6060000.pinctrl--platform:keys link is not recreated in [B],
  - nothing changes in /sys/class/devlink in [C].
But that issue is not introduced in this series.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
