Will review that discussion before making any decisions on this one. Also, a new process begin to emerge, and now, every new bindings should be acked by the new device tree maintainers. I'm not sure the discussion on the exact process has been settled, so that's probably why not all the maintainers are aware of that, but this ACK is (or will be) required for every new binding that comes in, and this should be enforced by all maintainers. The underlying thinking is that DT bindings should be a stable ABI, and as such be properly reviewed, instead of just being looked at by the other maintainers that are often not interested or just don't really know about DT at all.
