Please use scripts/get_maintainers.pl to get a list of necessary people
and lists to CC (and consider --no-git-fallback argument). It might
happen, that command when run on an older kernel, gives you outdated
entries. Therefore please be sure you base your patches on recent Linux
kernel.

Limited review follows, as robot already pointed out issues...

Node names should be generic. See also an explanation and list of
examples (not exhaustive) in DT specification:
