Usually ack from the colliding subsystem maintainer means he
acknowledges the patch and gives silent approval for merging
it via the other tree.

This is the usual workflow e.g. in case of massive reworks
of commonly shared kernel APIs.

Your Acked-for-MFD-by tag is not documented anywhere and I've just
found out about its exact meaning :-) Note also that it percolated
to the mainline git history probably because people mistakenly assumed
it was some new convention (despite that checkpatch.pl complains about
it). So far there are 12 occurrences thereof in git. I must admit that
I once unduly made my contribution to that mess.

Of course, now being taught about the exact meaning of the tag,
I will proceed accordingly.

Regarding this one - please hold on for a while with pulling
the stuff, since we may have some updates from REGULATOR maintainers
(hopefully Acked-by).
