So basically this two patches were needed because we needed to enable internal LDOs bypass mode on the imx6 and in the process this PMICs regs needed to be somehow adjusted, which only worked if this regs were marked as volatile. Long story short, this method was only introduced in Phytec's version so upstreaming really doesn't make much sense.
I apologize for any inconvenience, but this two patches somehow slipped through the process and landed on the "send-to-upstream" list. I also talked with @Stefan Rieadmueller and he agreed that this two patches can be dropped.
Thanks for your time.
