Hi Darren,

Thank you.
I'd like to send one small extra patch for this series - I missed
Removing hotplug driver in case of error here:
/* Sync registers with hardware. */
regcache_mark_dirty(mlxplat_hotplug->regmap);
err = regcache_sync(mlxplat_hotplug->regmap);
if (err)
goto fail_platform_mux_register;

I'll do it today.

Thanks,
Vadim.
