It's possible, sure.  Patch 09 is the only one that touches
drivers/mtd.  It would introduce build and/or runtime problems if mtd
and mfd trees get out of synch, however.

I was hoping to get subsystem maintainer ACKs and run everything
through the mfd tree, if possible (though I haven't heard any feedback
from Samuel about any of this yet).
