I merged patches 10 and 12 for now. These don't depend on any driver changes.

If Alex manages to get the driver bits merged for 4.21, I suppose we could do
a late PR for the dts bits? It would be nice to have both in the same release,
though I don't think anything would break if the dts bits are delayed.
