I am going slightly mad (by Queen). That documents says:

   1) The Documentation/ and include/dt-bindings/ portion of the patch 
should
      be a separate patch.

and

   4) Submit the entire series to the devicetree mailinglist at

        devicetree@...r.kernel.org

Above I mentioned "series", not "patch". So 1) is a series of 3 patches 
(2 changes to the DT binding file and 1 patch for the Khadas Edge2 DTS. 
Is that correct?

Arend
