I am guessing Mark is slightly hesitant to ack as he probably
doesn't want to add reviewing all our jack detection bindings to
his already fairly sizable work load and doing so here likely
means it will be expected in the future. From talking to people at
LinuxCon it looks like it is pretty unlikely the DT maintainers
will be acking individual bindings as well, basically they are
only really looking at major/framework things and leaving the
rest to subsystem maintainers.

Given that these patches only touch MFD/Extcon and extcon
is a subsystem designed to handle things like jack detection
isn't it really sufficient that you and Chanwoo have looked this
and are happy with it? Otherwise I really don't see anyway to
move this forward and would appreciate any suggestions?

Thanks,
Charles
