Hopefully when the driver patches > are sent for Linux this will have been helpful. 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
