I'm not sure what you mean w.r.t. history.
Both series are on V3 I think, so just make the next version v4 title it
something like "Basic clock, reset & dt support..."
For the changelogs, just mention you merged the two series again in
the cover letter & add the changelogs that you would have made for each
series to the cover as a single changelog.
Say somewhere in the cover that I suggested merging the series together
so that they could go via the same tree as the dt-binding headers are
required by both driver & devicetree.

Cheers,
Conor.
