Could you give me an advice?

This patch series consist of:
1) bug fixes (patches 1, 3, 5, 6, 13)
2) removing of boot related dirty hack, absolutely necessary for older
kernels (patch 12 and preparation patches 9-11)
3) improvements (patches: 2, 8)
4) cleanups (patches: 4, 7)
5) support of en7523 SoC (patches: 14-16)

What will be the best order of changes?

Mikhail Kshevetskiy
