Hi Pavel,
Could you change the patch title to something like this (see other patches
changing the device-trees, you'll see it's the common pattern):

	ARM: dts: bcm283x: increase dwc2's RX FIFO size

I suggest making a short summary of your github explanation[1] instead of just
citing Minas. On one hand Minas' memory might get fuzzy after some time (or not
be able to access the documentation) and...

...you're assuming this link will be always available. Which is unlikely. After
properly explaining the issue, you won't need the link anyway. Ultimately a
patch description should be as self-contained/self-explanatory as possible.

Other than that the patch looks good.
Thanks!
