Well, today, I have:
1. dt-bindings: Add depends-on
2. dts: Add depends-on
3. dt-bindings: Move depends-on to mandatory

If I squash dt-bindings commits, I am going to have:
  1. dt-bindings: Add mandatory depends-on
  2. dts: Add depends-on
or
  1. dts: Add depends-on
  2. dt-bindings: Add mandatory depends-on

I have not tested but if I used only the first commit in each
case (git bisect):
In the first case, dtbs_check is probably going to signal the
missing 'depends-on' property on dts.
In the second case, dtbs_check is probably going to signal the
not described 'depends-on' property present in dts.

Ok, thanks.
