Can these patches be merged separately?  Looks to me that the two options 
are either to:

A. to merge them together, or 

B. to merge patch 1 first, then patch 2

Or will things break if only patch 1 is merged?


If we merge them together, I'd say the best situation would be to take 
them through the OMAP tree, since the changes are all OMAP-specific.  In 
that case we'll want an ack for the first patch from the GPIO maintainers, 
Linus Walleij [off-list ref] and Alexandre Courbot 
[off-list ref].

Otherwise the path of least resistance would be (B) - you can get patch 1 
merged via the GPIO tree.  The GPIO maintainers can then provide a 
stable branch for us to base our changes on, or we can wait until the 
change reaches Linus.  Then we can subsequently merge patch 2 via the  
OMAP side.

Thoughts?
