The useful information would be can be applied independently to other
tree than MFD. From the sentence above I would guess that not (in that
case don't send it as separate patchset)... but from the code I think it
could (because it depends on MFD_ACT8945A).

Anyway please mark it explicitly - it helps the maintainer.
