It is nothing specific to my release management but years old rule: DTS
branch cannot contain driver commits. It is nothing new, discussed on
mailing lists for various SoC architectures many times.

However I don't fully understand why that dependency - except patch hunk
context - exists. You shouldn't have such dependency.
