His patch addes the support of PREG regulator in 88pm8607 regulator driver. Although this patch was submitted for a long time, it wasn't merged yet.
And I have a patch series on updating 88pm860x driver with IORESOURCE_REG. One patch in that series is used to split regulator subdevs into an array of regulator subdevs. It results in 88pm860x regulator driver updated and merged into MFD for-next branch. Since both Jett's patch and my patch updates code in probe() function of 88pm860x regulator driver, some code between these two patches conflicts. So I make the fourth patch in current series to resolve this conflict on MFD for-next branch. If you agree on merging this patch series into MFD tree without your Ack, it would be simple way. Or I could rebase it and split them into two different patch series for MFD and regulator tree. Which way do you like?
