Driver patches are not really necessary here and I would say are
independent. So as I said - submit bindings to the Linux kernel, so they
will get proper review. Otherwise it does not matter what I say here. It
does not guarantee absolutely any stable bindings because whatever
someone submits to Linux kernel will later overrule it. Therefore I do
not see any benefit of your approach - you will not be able to create
Linux kernel ABI (bindings) by sending binding patch to U-Boot. It does
not work like that.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
