I see there is now a v9 of the series, let me know if I should
apply some or all of those, or if I should wait for a pull request
from you.

I've just merged the Sunplus sp7021 support leaving out the
clock driver in order to make progress on that one, and
we can do the same thing here if there is still ongoing discussion
about some of the drivers. It would be nice to not wait too long
though, as we are already past -rc7.
