Patches for mx53evk are in one patchset, but they depends on patches you
sent in another patchset (for pmic, gpio,). All patches that belong to
the same patchset are merged together into the mainline, avoiding
conflicts and board breakages. If for example your first patchset is
merged, but the second one is waiting for changes, the board cannot be
compiled clean and can potentially break other board, if for example it
contains a partial modification that is fixed in the second patchset.
Increase the version number and put all related patches in the same
patchset.

Best regards,
Stefano Babic
