No need to split out the Makefile patch from the actual driver, they
clearly belong together.
The binding change should be a separate patch, as you did.

It's probably best to separate the driver patches from the
architecture submission
in the future, they can simply get merged by the respective subsystem
maintainers,
with a smaller Cc list.
