Daniel, Well, I'm talking about the only patch about DT bindings here, not the other (large number) of soc/board dts changes. Note that Alexandre tried to extract this discussion from the other patches without coming to a conclusion either ("[PATCH v3] ARM: at91: Document new TCB bindings", for instance). I had the feeling that this email thread was about to be fading out on a DT binding discussion, as it had done a couple of times during the last months... Both you and me produced "ping" messages to make this discussion progress with no real success so far... This is why I was a little worried.
