My mind certainly isn't any great :-(

My left hand seems to be unaware of what the right hand is doing.

Did I ACK that for merging through some other tree then?

And I guess if Himangi want to submit these ASoC patches, they
will have to go through the same tree as those patches in that case?

And would you consider implementing a gpiod version...?

Can you include that oneliner in your patch then to reduce
problems?
