Right, if everything else is in mainline, then having the last two patches
in the soc tree gets the job done the quickest.

If any of the other patches are only in linux-next but not in mainline yet,
then it seems best for Mark to take the ASoC/i2s patch for v5.16, and I'll
take the last one for v5.17, or maybe queue it separately from the rest
and send that in the second half of the 5.16 merge window after everything
else has landed.
