Though, it will need Peter's ack on the I2C mux patches as he is the I2C mux maintainer. Still, I wonder about the way to upstream the series. Feels like the first 5 patches should not go via I2C but seperately?

I guess I filed it under "wait for the next iteration"... Cheers, Peter

The result was that a new serie [1] which add support to create the PCI devices of_node if not existing, and then allow drivers to applies an overlay which describe the tree of devices as a child of a specific PCI device of_node. There are a lot of advantages to this approach (small patchset working for all susbystems, easier to use, description is using already existing device-tree). There are still some concerns about the viability of dynamic overlay but this might be settled soon. Regards, [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220509141634.16158c38@xps-bootlin/T/
