Perhaps, rather than putting a long list of "prerequisite-patch-id" in
your cover letters etc, you drop the need for headers from your bindings
entirely? Otherwise, you need to wait for the clock bindings to be applied
before any of your other peripherals etc can have drivers/bindings upstream.

AFAIU, and Rob/Krzk please correct me, the example in a dt-binding
really is an *example* and there's no requirement for it to match the
jh7110 dts exactly. Because of that you can drop the header & just do
something like `clocks = <&clk 7>, <&clk 77>;` etc and the example is
still valid. Same goes for all of the other driver patchsets for new
StarFive stuff, like the pmu or crypto, that also have dt-bindings.

The only person who has to worry then about dependencies is me when I
apply the .dts patches :)
