Hi Chen,

The arm-soc tree contains these patches is due to I submited a PR to
Arnd and he merged this today.

And for the sophgo/for-next branch, it does contains these patches. I
created the PR branch(sophgo/riscv-sophgo-dt-for-next) and
cherry-picked these patches from sophgo/for-next and submited the PR.
I see the commits in arm-soc are the same as that from
sophgo/riscv-sophgo-dt-for-next, but they are different against the
commit ids from sophgo/for-next due to cherry-pick operation.

So my question is, do we need to make sure commit id the same between
PR branch and sophgo/for-next branch?
If you are submitting everything that is in the for-next branch, you
should just submit that branch as is, that way you have submitted what
has been tested and all the commit id's will not change.

However, if you are submitting a subset, you should probably create a
branch with that subset (as you did) and then rebase the for-next
branch on top of that and then test the result yourself and then let it
it in linux-next for a day or 2 (to check for any new conflicts - there
should be none).  After that, you should submit the subset branch to
arm-soc.  This way (again) you have submitted what has been tested and
all the commit id's will not change.

Right now, you should rebase your for-next branch onto your
riscv-sophgo-dt-for-next branch so that the duplicate patches are
removed (they will be the same commits in both trees).

Thanks, Stephen. I have updated the sophgo/for-next.

Regards,

Chen
