I have been preparing driver for yet another ROHM PMIC (bd71828) - and the patch has been taking a few spins as RFC now. I would like to send first non RFC version of it - and I would like to write it on top of this patch. Is it Ok if I include this patch in the series - or should this stay as independent change? I would like to try avoid conflicting patches.
