I think it's beneficial to send a v6 with the following changes: 1) Make this dt-bindings patch the first in the series 2) Make sure you've collected all the tags you've received to all the patches 3) Specify the base commit ad 1) I don't know if it's a hard rule, but I've seen a consistent pattern where the dt-binding changes come before those changes being applied to DeviceTree files. It also makes sense as when the dt-binding change hasn't been applied, then the DT file is technically invalid. ad 2) You shouldn't make maintainers do extra work to get your patch(es) merged; you want to make their work as easy as possible. Thus you do the (extra) work and provide a new version of the patch(es). Sending multiple versions in a single day is generally not recommended as you should give reviewers some time to do the review. But it should be fine now as several days have past without new reviews. ad 3) The `git format-patch` command has a `--base=<commit>` parameter with which you can make explicit upon which commit the patch is based. That works a lot better/easier then a textual description. HTH
