Yes, other patches will build even without this patch. But SFP will not work.
This patch series implement I2C, GPIO, SFP and PHYLINK. The support of SFP
is dependent on I2C and GPIO. If these patches will be end up merging in the
same upstream version, it's not a problem to merge them in different trees,
I think.
