The rule that DTS must go via Qualcomm SoC (arm-soc) was there always,
but other maintainers often do not pay attention to this. I don't blame
them, don't get me wrong. I am just stating the observed actions.
Usually netdev folks and Greg will take everything you throw at them, so
for these subsystems it is recommended to split DTS to different patchset.

For other maintainers it is usually also more useful to split, because
then they can apply entire patchset with one command, instead of picking
up specific patches (omitting DTS).

Best regards,
Krzysztof
