Understood. So if you are is one who is sending a new version, you should take
care about any given tags (such as Reviewed-by) and carry them, in case the
code is not drastically changed. I.o.w. if you don't, you have to explain why.

Anyways, it seems the patch still has a flaw as per LKP, so fix that by
providing probably two macros in the pnp.h header for both cases
(CONFIG_PNP=y/n), and I will review it again.

	#ifdef CONFIG_PNP
	...
	#define dev_is_pnp(...) ...
	...
	#else
	...
	#define dev_is_pnp(...)		false
	...
	#endif
