>From my point of view, I don't see anything that would prevent merge
to -cip. Steps to take would be:

a) Identify minimum usable subset of the patches. That would likely be
"whatever is neccessary to get some kind of output on serial console",
probably clock, pinctrl, serial, dts.

b) Verify that support is already in mainline, submit neccessary
patches if not.

c) Add this point it may be useful to start running tests of mainline
on your LAVA board.

d) Probably send a list of patches that will be needed for initial
boot.

e) Start submitting patches for review & merge.

Thanks and best regards,
