you post such stuff alone without indication it is part of MFD, what do
you expect from reviewers?

Which was comment about MFD, right? It is expected to have example for
MFD. I never said it is mandatory for every schema, which you implied in

First you split patches making reviewers life difficult. Then reviewers
don't get entire concept and they answer based what they got.

After posting entire patchset with context you can get better review,
yes, that's right.
