What's the status of this patchset? It has seen various stages of
review, and except for the fact that Govind seems to have dropped
various Reviewed-by/Acked-by tags (which Rob noticed), I don't see any
relevant feedback that should be blocking it.

I previously had concerns about the firmware boot sequence -- that it
required a Qualcomm-specific TFTP service over QRTR, which had no open
source implementations. There is now a published daemon that worked for
me [1], as well as firmware releases that loaded modem and Wifi firmware
together, such that this TFTP service is not needed at all. So my
concerns there are no longer blocking.

And I think Rob already reviewed the relevant DT bindings (but again,
Govind missed collecting that tag for this series).

So the only outstanding request I see is to collect the appropriate
tags. Should Govind resend the whole series just for that?

FWIW, I've been using this series for a while now, and I reviewed
earlier versions. I can provide this for the whole series:

Reviewed-by: Brian Norris <briannorris-F7+t8E8rja9g9hUCZPvPmw@public.gmane.org>

If nothing else, I think it's important to get someone to merge the DT
bindings from this series, because Govind is now trying to extend the DT
binding and to enable the WCN3990 device node in the SDM845 device tree
nodes.

Regards,
Brian
