When you're providing a patch-set such as this, where all of the
patches spread across the various subsystems are related, it's better
to just send the whole thing to everyone. Adding maintainers in this
way means that some of us are now missing come context. More
importantly I'm missing [PATCH 00/11].
After looking the cover-letter up on the interweb, I notice this:
"According to the comments regarding our last posting, the MFD driver
patchset has been split up into separate functional parts."
Where did your last posting go? I can't seem to look it up, either on
the MLs or via Google. Who asked you to split up the MFD patches? Do
you have a link to any previous conversation surrounding this set?

This is worrying. What makes flexcard special enough to require a
directory? There are currently no other directories in drivers/mfd.

I've never really liked these. Just use "flexcard" where required.

You need to make this more easily/instantly readable. Insert a
comment explaining what's happening and consider renaming the local
variable to something more friendly/explanatory.

Are these used anywhere else except core.c? If not, please move them
into there. Same with any other variable/struct/define which is used
in only a single file.
