I have not expressed myself correctly: they have been agreed (even
though as I said they may require some tweaking) but I see no urgency
of merging them in v4.20 since they have no user. They contain DT
bindings, that create ABI/legacy, I think it is better to have code
that uses them in the kernel before merging them and creating a
dependency that is not needed.

We will do.
