You need to do something with this indentation. It's unreadable. Please
look at git history to see how other people are writing longer commit
messages. Some examples of lists:

I have no clue what this is... It is called a "SoC driver", but uses a
SoC compatible. It's not possible to understand the big picture, based
on this one patch (and it is not part of series...).

Please go through the comments you received... I provided you some time
with an example how the submission should look like:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-samsung-soc/31da451b-a36c-74fb-5667-d4193284c6cd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/#mf98d2ac27a8481dc69dd110f9861c8318cade252
1. Cover letter with changelog
2. Patches split and organized:
a. dt-bindings,
b. driver changes,
c. DTS.

Thinks could be separated, e.g. driver changes with corresponding DTS
updates, but you cannot send a bindings as separate email and DTS in
entirely different email to different people. We need to see all of them.

For example the Tesla FSD above split SPI changes into completely
separate series. That's ok. Still The series above bring everything
needed to judge/review that part.
