Perhaps that could be added, say below the --- marker in the patch.
Maybe I missed something to that effect. Anyhow, I didn't spot in the
patch that this was done deliberately. It had all the looks of a silly
mistake.

The other side of that is that the sama5d2 might never make it, or take
very long to make it, into mainline. And this would then end up being
yet another chunk of code adding no value to mainline.
