It's a compromise actually. It's a bit of struggle and tough sometimes since I care both about the kernel and the autonomy of the DT bindings communities. We are in a transition phase to YAML bindings, and what is important for me as maintainer is to have developer buy-in, and it is more motivating for developers to work on this in-tree than having patches held back. I personally know how important it is to feel that things move forward in development. Now it should be a separate task on top of what we have, which is less stressful and gives the feeling of a bit of accomplishment. When the new generic YAML bindings are proven to work on two drivers or so I will be more demanding that people use them in their bindings from day 1. But we need to make sure it works first and that is a separate task. Yours, Linus Walleij
