Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] Add support for AAEON SRG-IMX8PL MCU

This patch series introduces support for the AAEON SRG-IMX8PL embedded
controller (MCU). The MCU is connected via I2C and provides GPIO and
watchdog functionality for the SRG-IMX8PL board.

The series includes:
- Device tree binding for the MFD driver
- MFD driver that serves as the core driver for the MCU
- GPIO driver implementing the GPIO functionality
- Watchdog driver for system monitoring
- MAINTAINERS entry for the new drivers

The drivers follow the standard Linux kernel subsystem patterns, with
the MFD driver registering the sub-devices (GPIO and watchdog) which
are then handled by their respective subsystem drivers.

Changes in v2:
- Fold GPIO and watchdog bindings into MFD binding
- Drop OF_GPIO dependency in GPIO Kconfig
- Use __set_bit/__clear_bit/__assign_bit instead of atomic variants
- Various driver cleanups and improvements
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251212-dev-b4-aaeon-mcu-driver-v1-0-6bd65bc8ef12@bootlin.com
