err, what common MFD patch?  There was nothing in either the changelog
nor the patch title which indicated that this patch had a dependency on
other patches.  This makes things harder for mergers and reviewers,
especially when the patchset hits multiple subsystems, maintained by
multiple developers.

Probably the best way to handle this sort of thing is to present it as a
sequence-numbered patch series with well-chosen cc's and an overall
description of the dependencies and perhaps the merge plan in [patch
0/n].
