Yes, and follow Documentation/SubmittingPatches

Right.

The first only gets a single line to include the second.

Move this to the platform Kconfig file. Also, drop all the
'select' statements that are implied by ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
and ARCH_MULTI_V7

Keep this sorted alphabetically.

name this after the actual board you use, put everything that is not
specific to the board into a tango4.dtsi file.

A "simple-bus" does not have a 'reg' property normally. If you
have to program some of the registers, give it a different
compatible string that the driver for this bus can match.

You can probably drop the label.

Better do this like everyone else.

This conflicts with the other definition of the same symbol.

Most of these are already implied by teh generic options.

Remove all hardcoded physical memory addresses.

CLK_OF_DECLARE() for the clk

CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE() for the clocksource/clockevent

Make these two drivers.

What is this for? Most platforms don't need this.

Never put 'extern' declarations into a .c file.

All except the dt_compat can be removed here.
