Hi Joel,

After looking at it a bit, I *think* the third warning above (st,24c128) 
is a false positive due to the checkpatch script's ad-hoc grep of the DT 
binding files not picking up on the regex-based compatible definition in 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/eeprom/at24.yaml -- AFAICT, the 
compatible strings match what's described in the comment in that file 
(and the actual regex itself I believe).

The isl69269 warnings are certainly legitimate though; I'll submit a v3 
with that added to trivial-devices.yml.


Thanks,
Zev
