I contributed to the confusion about this, let's see if we can clear it up.

An issue was found related to which enum values were used to represent
what late in the last release cycle. As a result a revert[1] patch for
everything touching bus-type in anx7625 was merged.

This patch, does not apply to drm-misc-next due to the revert, and if
Xin Ji rebases his work on the drm-misc-next there should be no
ABI-change as this patch when fixed up will introduce bus-type to the
nax7625 ABI.

Xin: Does this make sense to you?
