Hi Krzysztof,

We posted our patches based on linux-next and the bot was trying to run
the dt_binding_checks on rc1 wherein patch [1] failed to apply as
patch [2] was missing on rc1 but was available on linux-next. The patch
application failure on rc1 was the reason behind the binding error and 
there were no dependencies on linux-next.

Thanks & Regards,
