on the contrary ... I was hoping for exactly this :-) .

I.e. there is no need to merge everything together and the common pattern
is "binding goes through the driver-tree", dts goes through some soc-tree
(mine it this case).

But I can only merge the dts patches, _after_ the binding was merged,
so that was more of an elborate "ping" and _sometimes_ maintainers
might expect the binding just going with the dts patches.

So, thanks for merging the binding and I'll merge the dts patches now.

Thanks a lot
Heiko
