Not all drivers need to be compiled into the kernel.
Support building and loading of kernel modules.

Hi Nikolaus,

Patches 03-12 only touch the same two files - ci20.dts and 
ci20_defconfig.

Unless someone strongly disagrees, I'd suggest to squash all patches 
that touch each file together (except the ones with a Fixes tag), I 
don't think we really need that much granularity here.

-Paul

It comes more from having developed these things quite independently and only collected for submission...

One patch I don't know how to handle: "MIPS: DTS: CI20: add DT node for IR sensor".
It is from 2015 and has a different author (some Alex Smith but the mail address seems to be broken).
This information and attribution will be lost if we squash them.

But I can do for V3 and will also fix the fixes tags by adding cc: stable :)

BR and thanks,
Nikolaus

Ah, alright. Then I guess keep this one separate.
