However, netdev does not like pathchsets which contain patches which
should not be applied to the netdev tree. DT patches generally go
through a different Maintainer to driver changes implementing the
binding.

So for your DT patch, you could add to the commit message something
like:

The RTL8211E ethernet PHY driver has recently gained support for
controlling PHY LEDs via /sys/class/leds. The Bananapi M1 has three
LEDs connected to the RTL8211E PHY.  Add the corresponding nodes to
the device tree.
