Yaah, looked the changes from Gortmaker.
The things are evolving faster.

I think we can change "bool" to "tristate" here.
Then there is no need to have code change. MFD driver is already said as 
tristate.


I will wait for Lee's comment on this series patch before recycling the 
patch. (Already on V11 :-(  ).
