We use bindings and dts files, exacted periodically from the linux tree and imported into ours, for all modern arm boards/systems. Several times I've created drivers for small things like i2c RTC chips that aren't supported currently by linux, and it's not clear to me that it's even possible to submit bindings and dts for them back upstream without also submitting a linux driver that uses them (which of course I'm not in a position to do). -- Ian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree-spec" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
