This is not good, you should not split patches in a way that breaks
the individual pieces. It would have been better to just take the entire
patch through either arm-soc or the mfd tree.

Any suggestions for a way out of this mess? I'm inclined to just
revert the patch I have and let Samuel pick it up to submit it along
with the other half.
