Why are commits lost? The order of commit dates is not straightforward, yes, 
but that's not a problem at all.

The inital problem came up with 922a9f936e40001f9b921379aab90047d5990923 
("regmap: mmio: Convert to regmap_bus and fix accessor usage"). The commits 
9f9f8b863ad130ec0c25f378bdbad64ba71291de, 
4f7d6dd4df8b388e2056c89b528254cdd79dea2a and 
0dbdb76c0ca8e7caf27c9a210f64c4359e2974a4 tried to fix that. With those I could 
successfully probe DCU.
