Sure.

Sure, the helpers will be part of the part2 of the whole series,
which will actually have the individual subsystems consuming the
new helpers. For your reference, it is available here :

http://linux-arm.org/git?p=linux-skp.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/driver-cleanup/v2

e.g: 
http://linux-arm.org/git?p=linux-skp.git;a=commit;h=59534e843e2f214f1f29659993f6e423bef16b28

I could simply pull those patches into this part, if you prefer that.
However, that would be true for the other patches in the part2.
I am open to suggestions, on how to split the series.
