Thanks, very useful to have!
Howeveer, I thought the plan was to not add more hardware support to
r8a7796-salvator-x.dts that might not work with 64-bit memory, to avoid
this becoming a blocker when enabling 64-bit memory?

In the mean time, Linus W. has pulled basic r8a7796 support from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/geert/renesas-drivers.git
tags/sh-pfc-for-v4.9-tag2, so Simon can pull it as well, and queue pinctrl
patches for the devices that are already declared in r8a7796-salvator-x.dts.
