I remember you told me about this thing, it's really fascinating!
Acked-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>

I'll create a tag once I have the devm* stuff in place (it's so
good we just have to have it).

BTW another way is to have this ACK:ed by Jean/Dooks/Wolfram
and I just put it in the pinctrl tree, unless there is something
radical happening in the mux part of the I2C tree this merge
window?

Yours,
Linus Walleij
