Normally yes, but here I see update to tuning algorithm and timing
paramaters to the algorithm. DT updates seem to be nature of bug fixes
where in parameters have been refined due to more HW char
data/understanding being available.

I get nervous when anyone posts both driver and DT changes in a single
series, because they may not have tested driver changes standalone and
may have broken the DT backward compatibility
