Well, makes sense too and it is the least problematic approach. :-) > Since DT should strive for being backwards compatible (i.e, a driver > change shouldn't require a DT change for the kernel to not regress > functionally), this has been working pretty well.

No, I just wanted to make sure drivers can still function when they go to linux-next. But I certainly can get on board with keeping drivers and DT changes separate as it requires no sync and the short period of time when they don't load in linux-next, is perfectly ok. So can I assume you guys are going to pick up: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1538667328-9465-7-git-send-email-manish.narani@xilinx.com https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1540447621-22870-6-git-send-email-manish.narani@xilinx.com ? I can then pick up the rest. And I'll be ignoring DT stuff sent to me from now on and concentrate on the EDAC drivers, assuming former will go through your tree. Sounds good?
