Okay, so the best thing to do is send out the entire patch-set at
once, CC'ing each of the maintainers on every patch so we can all see
how this thing fits together.

Don't forget to create a cover-letter and each patch should be
in-reply to the cover letter. If you haven't done this before,
practise by sending it to yourself until it looks correct rather than
spamming the list.

It should look like this on this list:

[PATCH 00/03] Subject ...
|-> [PATCH 01/03] mfd: Description ...
|-> [PATCH 02/03] hwmon: Description ...
|-> [PATCH 03/03] gpio: Description ...
