On the other hand is has been sitting idle for 4 yrs now. How time flies... The original series that this was part of was never fully merged. This was = (in part) due to some general regmap changes being required [1]. In the meantim= e someone else has submitted (nearly the same) changes that were merged into regmap [2], so I could try resubmitting my patches. These have now been inc= luded downstream in OpenWrt for a few months too, where they are using the regmap= MDIO support, but I understand that out-of-tree consumers aren't usually up for consideration.
