Now it works, so: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.11-rc3/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.rst#L79 The rule was/is: 1. Binding for typical devices always go via subsystem tree, with the driver changes. There can be exceptions from above, e.g. some subsystems do not pick up bindings, so Rob does. But how patches are organized is not an exception - it is completely normal workflow. 2. DTS *always* goes via SoC maintainer. DTS cannot go via any other driver subsystem tree. There is no exception here. There cannot be an exception, because it would mean the hardware depends on driver, which is obviously false. Best regards, Krzysztof
