Why are patches [3/6] and [4/6] included in v2 even though William
said they should be ignored?

Again, replacing for_each_set_clump8() with for_each_set_clump()
does not provide any benefit but may impact performance and makes
the code more difficult to follow.  So once more, please do not
change drivers which are known to work fine with 8 bit clumps,
specifically gpio-max3191x.c and gpio-74x164.c.

Please in the future include a list of the changes you've made
in the cover letter, not just in each individual patch.

Thanks,

Lukas
