Any reason why you've dropped all my tags?

You mean these? For my own reference: Acked-for-MFD-by: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org> I wasn't really sure what to do with them. They are not in the normal tag format I've seen so I thought you use them yourself somehow to manage your mailboxes. I can add them back if needed.

It normally means that I plan to take the set through MFD and subsequently send an immutable pull-request out to the other Maintainers once all the other Acks have been provided. MFD handles these kinds of cross-subsystem patch-sets often.

OK, thanks for the explanation. I'll re-send with your acks added then.

This series has dependencies to PDx86 (as mentioned in cover letter). What do you prefer then, me to: a) prepare ib from what I have, then you take it followed by me taking your ib, or b) take everything and prepare ib for you?

Either would be fine by me. What kind of dependencies are they? Are they protected by Kconfig options? Another way of asking that would be to say, would this set throw build errors if I tried to apply and build it or would it just refuse to compile?

They do not apply cleanly because linux-platform-drivers-x86.git/for-next re-organizes Kconfig and Makefile entries. I think they should still build fine, though.
