No, the dt_binding_check fails. You don't need to go to dtbs_check even,
because the binding already has a failure.

I don't feel insulted but I feel my time is wasted if I tell you to test
your binding and you immediately within few minutes respond "I tested",
but then:
1. Bot confirms it was not tested,
2. I apply your patch and test it and see the failure.
