What do you mean there is no dependency? The DFL is required here and it
won't compile without these patches:

  CC      drivers/memory/dfl-emif.o
../drivers/memory/dfl-emif.c:10:10: fatal error: linux/fpga/dfl.h: No such file or directory
 #include <linux/fpga/dfl.h>
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

This simply cannot go in without dependency.

I described in your v1 submission what is needed here:
"Anyway I will need a stable tag with mentioned dependencies or this
will wait for the next cycle."

Best regards,
Krzysztof
