Hi Lee,

Sorry, seems git send-email added you of it's own volition.

I've sent these patches to the mailing list for comment/help not for 
submission. As mentioned in the cover email, the first 5 patches are 
from an existing series that has been rejected. The later 3 patches show 
my modifications. I have not yet moved these files from the MFD 
directory, but will before submission (the series will be reworked so 
that the driver never goes into the MFD area).

As I mentioned before, I'm posting these patches for comment (hence why 
I've marked them as "RFC" not "PATCH").
