The contents seem the same as sun5i-q8-common.dtsi and sun5i-a13-q8-tablet.dts.
Any chance you could use those instead?

On the side, any thoughts on how to handle the differences between various "Q8"
tablets, like different I2C-based sensors and WiFi chips?

I'm asking because with Maxime's couple-regulator we should be able to get the
RTL8723BS on the Q8 A23/33 v1.5 working.
