Where is ADP5520_KEYMAPSIZE defined?
all these things are in the common mfd adp5520 patch.  it introduces a
common adp5520 header.
err, what common MFD patch?  There was nothing in either the changelog
nor the patch title which indicated that this patch had a dependency on
other patches.  This makes things harder for mergers and reviewers,
especially when the patchset hits multiple subsystems, maintained by
multiple developers.

Probably the best way to handle this sort of thing is to present it as a
sequence-numbered patch series with well-chosen cc's and an overall
description of the dependencies and perhaps the merge plan in [patch
0/n].
the MFD patch has been sent to the MFD guy already for review.  being
an MFD means it touches like 4 or 5 different subsystems.  but the
only dependency is on the MFD core.
