Ok.

Insofar as this was (also) directed at me: I don't know how this works (yet).

I'm an interested 'bystander' who is interested in kernel 6.1 as that'll likely
be Debian Bookworm's kernel and rockchip/Pine64 devices.

As such I regularly look at the (6.1) queue and found those rockchip crypto
patches. I also tested this whole patch set to see whether it does what it
claimed; which it does.

Rob Herring noted a mismatch between the dt-bindings of the "reset-names" 
property and the implementation in rk3399.dtsi in commit 8c701fa6e38c here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAL_JsqJkHR+iccEf=5SU40Qq+cQpGZRq26TLzec-_Nr-Buu2KQ@mail.gmail.com/
("lave" -> "slave" and "crypto" -> "crypto-rst")

I may have used the word 'hotfix' incorrectly.

I don't know, but I've seen several "Merge tag 'vX.Y-rockchip-dtsfixes' ..."
commits by Arnd Bergmann around rc6 or rc7 in the past.
