I don't think that I can answer them. I said I leave the logistics to
tglx.

This can go via one merge via irq. This can also go differently i.e.
feature branch on top of 5.17-rc1 (with 1/7) which is merge into each
subsystem and then the "feature" on top.

Either way it remains bisect-able since each driver is changed
individually. There is no need to merge them in one go but since it is
that small it probably makes sense. But I don't do the logistics here.
