They somehow depend on each other.

The device renaming shouldn't matter since I added DT nodes for the mfd child devices earlier. But then the of_compatible assignments should go hand in hand. However if I split this then the driver won't work but then it does not now as well (because there is no platform_data provider in tree). Still. There is #18 which reworks the "step addressing" and involves changes in both (iio & input) at the same time. There is #21. Adding this to the initial "DT support" patch would be bad I think because it requires some changes on the iio side which have nothing to do with DT. Putting the iio changes before DT would require to make some change to platform-data part which will go away anyway. So I started collecting ACKs from input and iio to avoid this split. If you really want the split then I will start doing so… > Cheers, > Samuel.
