A maintainer can just as easily take a series as a single patch and we prefer binding doc, dts and driver changes all separate. Second, the dts changes could go thru arm-soc and the driver change thru netdev. The binding doc can be thru either. There's no bisecting dependency and things shouldn't break. It just won't all work until you have both branches.
