IMO there is indeed such a thing as over-review when it comes
to migrating legacy platforms: as subsystem maintainer I ask the bigger
question: does the kernel look better after than before this patch? If the
author is stressed by too much review I tend to just apply it and say that
comments can be addressed by additional patches.

DT bindings are different because they are written in stone. We just need
to settle the DT bindings. Give the patch set some rest and come back and
poke me to apply it when the chatter stops.

Yours,
