The usual pattern here is that the MFD patches get merged and then I pull a shared branch in for any dependencies - at this point the series is now on the backlog of serieses where I'm waiting for the MFD to sort itself out before I really look at it again.
I understand. But this series is somewhat special, if you also take the follow-up series into account:
"[PATCH v4 resend 00/13] MFD/extcon/ASoC: Rework arizona codec jack-detect support"
That again has some MFD bits, and some extcon patches and ASoC patches which depend on the extcon bits and this series.
That series is drifting along in the same way AFAICT, and it's also got the extcon dependency so it'll need to leave it a bit longer for extcon review (unless some happens sooner).
So it is really hard to merge all the bits through there separate trees and just merging it all through one tree and then pulling in the end-result as a shared branch would IMHO be easier.
Most of this for me is just about not wanting to have to repeatedly look at the same series as it goes through small changes due to changes in the dependencies.
