I have one comment for the binding, but we can handle them separately. I think the first five patches can just get merged through net-next if there are no other concerns, and feel free to add my Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann For the last two patches, once we have worked out the right compatible strings, please send them to Florian for merging through the arm-soc next/dt branch.
