Yet another thing that's been there from the start... how many more
things are you going to pick up in subsequent versions of the patch?
When does this stop?

In any case, taking your comment literally,

"dt-bindings: mfd: add for Apple Mac System Management Controller"

makes no sense, so presumably you want something more than that.

In any case, I see several recent cases already merged which follow
the pattern that I've used and that you've reviewed.

Sigh, getting an order that is sensible is really bloody difficult.
I'm quite sure Lee is only going to want to apply the mfd bits. Then
what do we do with the other bits? GPIO stuff via the GPIO tree, then
wait a cycle before the rest can be merged. Or what?

I'll defer to Hector for his response on this one, but you've had
had plenty of opportunities to bring this up in the past - it's been
there since the first posting.

Frustrating is definitely the word for this drip-drip-drip review.
