Apologies, I might have misunderstood your previous comment. I thought you asked me to split it again so that it is a rebased continuation of the approved old patches.
To avoid any further misunderstandings on my part , could you please confirm the following:
1) I will create one patch combining both
2) The tag for this one patch will be "[PATCH v2] gpio: mmio: handle "ngpios" properly in bgpio_init()"
And Reviewed-By Andy and Linus.
3) I will add in the commit message , a changelog section as shown below:

V1->v2:
- rebase + combination of the 2 patches.
