No.

Those changes are complete garbage and don't even compile. It has
apparently never been in linux-next or been build-tested in any way.

When CONFIG_MULTIPLEXER=m, we build that core.o file

obj-$(CONFIG_MULTIPLEXER) += mux-core.o

but in include/linux/mux/consumer.h you have

#ifdef CONFIG_MULTIPLEXER

which won't be true (because what will be defined is
CONFIG_MULTIPLEXER_MODULE), so then you get a long stream of things
like

drivers/mux/core.c:312:14: error: redefinition of ‘mux_control_states’

because the mux/consumer.h header will have defined the dummy wrapper function.

In other words, that commit ad314348ceb4 ("mux: Add helper functions
for getting optional and selected mux-state") is pure unadulterated
untested garbage.

I do not want to see a "fixed" pull request from you. This was
entirely unacceptable, and I will not be pulling anything more from
you this merge window.

Stop sending me untested crap that hasn't been in linux-next and
doesn't even pass the most cursory smell test.

You can try again for 7.1, but only if it has been actually in
linux-next and properly tested.
