Wait a minute! Why are you putting a patch set to modify core devicetree
in the middle of a driver series. Please pull it out to a separate series.
I'll try to look at the patches, as they are in this series, sometime
tomorrow. I have a vague memory of unresolved issues from the last
time they were proposed.
Thanks,
Frank
