"if any changes are required"

ROFL. Have you ever seen a new network driver where v1 got accepted?

Anyway, thanks for starting small. But there is still a way to go
before this will be accepted.

FYI: DT patches go first in the series.

I suggest you subscribe to the netdev list, and spend 15-30 minutes a
day reading patches and reviews. You can learn a lot that way, and
avoid repeating mistakes others have made.
