Soon after 4.5-rc1 sounds great.

FYI, to add some context, the Mediatek nvmem driver is actually
blocking several other drivers that we would also like to see land in
v4.5:  Mediatek thermal, Mediatek cpufreq_thermal, and Mediatek
devfreq_thermal.

So, the sooner nvmem lands, the earlier we can start staging/pushing
through the rest.

Thanks,
-Dan
