I think we can ignore this error: The qcom,rpm-master-stats.yaml schema
exists only in the qcom for-next branch at the moment, which is what
this series targets. The base-commit in the cover letter also points
there (although I guess it might be tricky to resolve it reliably for
automated testing).

Before sending this series I verified that there are no dt_binding_check
and dtbs_check warnings or errors when applied to the correct branch.

Thanks,
