I believe the whole thing should go via the MFD tree. It touches

Please fix your commit logs, and your subject lines. It should be
e.g.
quoted
quoted
mfd: input: ti_am335x_adc: Blablabla

if it's mostly an mfd patch that also touches an input driver.

Then, this is a pretty big patchset, with iio, input and mfd all
mixed
quoted

together and it is likely to create merge conflicts.
From what I can see from it, and please correct me if I'm
wrong, the iio and input changes depend on the mfd ones, and not
the
quoted

other way around. If that's so, I'm going to ask you to reshuffle
your
quoted
quoted
patch set and separate the MFD changes from the iio and input ones.
I'll
quoted

take the MFD ones and will create an immutable branch for Jonathan
and
quoted

Dmitry to pull from and apply the iio and input changes on top of
it.

Merge conflicts should be mostly avoided that way.
I purposely left this driver alone as I expected it would be merged
through MFD tree, so there should not be any merging issues on my
side.
Thanks for the notice.
Jonathan, can you guarantee the same for the iio parts ?
I have also been avoiding taking any of these and there are unlikely to be any iio wide changes merging at this stage in cycle.  Hence these going through MFD is best plan.

Lars raised a couple of issues so would be best to wait for his ack if he hasn't already looked at this revision.

Thanks

Jonathan. 
Sabastian, hold on before reworking your patchset.

Cheers,
Samuel.
