Hi,

You sent few patches independently of each other. If we did not ask,
we would not get the idea why you need them. This is not how the Linux
kernel development works. Instead, start preparing a proper patchset
to achieve your goal. This patchset will contain multiple patches. It
should go with a cover letter (see git format-patch) explaining why
you do it. This way reviewers will know the big picture. The entire
work should not break existing systems (see comments for IRQ combiner
or pinctrl). You should consider how your change will affect existing
systems.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
