I will send you a complete series containing both RTC and ADC support.
Then you can decide wether you
1. apply the whole series (both things)
2. apply RTC for 5.7 and this series later
3. ignore them  (not my preferred choice ;-) ).

BTW: The way I did was based on the following note in 
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

"If one patch depends on another patch in order for a change to be
complete, that is OK.  Simply note **"this patch depends on patch X"**
in your patch description."
