As non-native speaker I merely wondered whether a comma should better be 
inserted to separate the two parts of the sentence. Splitting it in two 
or leaving as is should be fine, too - I assume you're a native speaker. 
Most people will rather read the bindings document than old git history, 
so you might want to consider adding such a description below its title.

I only noticed because someone refactored my Realtek section, causing a 
merge conflict.

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=3b50142d8528e1efc1c07f69c540f926c58ab3ad

Which reminds me, in 1/5 you should probably add a W: line (after S: 
according to above sort commit) pointing to your 
http://linux-chenxing.org/ website.

And for the community following your project, you may want to set up a 
linux-chenxing mailing list on vger.kernel.org or on infradead.org and 
add it as L:, to allow for error reports and patches to not just go to 
you and crowded LAKML.

Cheers,
Andreas
