Thomas,

Adding Grant and Mark to the Cc to make sure they don't have buyer's
remorse ;-)

Yes, that's why I asked the question.  Mark Rutland said he wanted to
see the code changes when he was reviewing a binding.  Which is indeed
the opposite of what we had arrived at during the ARM mini-summit.

So I asked Grant (last question of the Q&A) what he wanted us to tell
the contributors.  He said (bad paraphrasing here) "I have better
filters now for finding the binding changes, so send the whole series"

As him and Mark aren't the only reviewers, I took the extra step of
saying send the DT bindings as a separate patch with it clearly
identified in the subject line...

thx,

Jason.
