I'd expect to see a submission of three patches I think
1. Patch adding the muxed resource support 2. Patch making the hwmon driver use it 3. Patch adding the new driver which needs it
and then we have a few other bits of code that probably should adopt it, but that is a separate matter and other maintainers can do that bit.
