Additionally, sending the binding and dts patch split out from the proposed driver change is very unhelpful, as often (as is the case here) binding patches are not very well explained and it is required to read the driver to reverse-engineer the binding patch author's real intent. Particularly when you mention an ABI break it is important to do so, so that we can check the code changes to make sure that the ABI is upheld. Thanks, Conor.
