Hi Linus,

> Can this be applied separately once reviewed?

I do not see how: this 4th patch needs fsl_guts_rcw_read(), and
few other fsl_guts_*() which are from the patch 3.

There are the following cross tree dependencies / maintainer depencies:
patch 1, 2: DT bindings -> to reviewed by Rob/Krzysztof/Conor, but bindings travel with the driver that uses them
patch 3 : drivers/soc/fsl/guts.c -> soc/fsl, Christophe Leroy (via arm-soc)
patch 4 : drivers/pinctrl/ -> pinctrl, (you) Linus Walleij
patch 5 : fsl-lx216x.dtsi -> i.MX DTS, Shawn Guo or Frank Li (via arm-soc)

Could an ack of Christophe Leroy be enough on patch 3 to 1...4 could land into the pinctrl tree ?
Then, patch 5 could be managed apart.

best regards,
Vincent
