May I ask why you're creating an immutable branch of all this contents?

We should get the dts/dtsi contents like usual from any maintainer;
just the DT updates in a branch.

Sometimes (but less and less due to us discouraging the use) we need
an immutable branch that includes dt-include updates. But I don't see
any of those in this contents.

I.e. I guess I can see the need between mfd and downstream trees
(iio/pwm), but not the DTS contents at this time. Or am I missing
something here?
