I don't seem to have this series in my inbox and not in my i2c folder either?
(and I don't remember having seen the patches, but this was a while ago so I
could easily have forgotten everything about it)
Anyway, I had to lookup the branch to see what this was about. And in that
branch, I find b7f1e84715a1 ("i2c: pca954x: move header file out of I2C realm"),
but I initially didn't find the mlxcpld patch. That was because it had an
"x86: " prefix that I didn't react to. I first found the mlxcpld patch in
patchwork and then I found it in the branch too, but in patchwork it has the
expected "i2c: mux: " prefix so I'm not sure what you are talking about
*exactly*.
But I'm sure you'll do something sensible, just go ahead.
Cheers,
Peter
PS. Please Cc me if you want a faster reaction, I didn't notice this
yesterday.
