Hi both,

Apologies, I made a silly mistake when submitting this series.

Patch 2 
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rockchip/20220328005005.72492-3-kc@postmarketos.org/), 
contains a fix which should have been squashed into patch one - the first hunk 
of the diff, the bug is a bitwise compare to an enum which isn't bitwise:

if (param == (PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT | PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_ENABLE))

In hindsight, I think it was a mistake the add a Fixes tag to the first patch, 
it doesn't fix a "bug" it just adds behaviour which arguably should have been 
implemented in the patch it fixes.

The patch shouldn't be backported to stable as it will introduce a bug if ported 
without the second patch (and as above, I don't think this series should be 
backported at all). Could you let me know how to get this dropped from backporting?

Again, sorry for the hassle this has caused.

Kind regards,
Caleb
