Hi Simon, Geert,

Do you need extra actions from my side to accept this patch?

Ideally, we don't include *.dts files, only *.dtsi.
But I don't see a better immediate solution.

+#include "ulcb-kf.dtsi"
As the Kingfisher is actually an expansion board for H3ULCB (with R-Car H3
ES1.1 and ES2.0) and M3ULCB (with R-Car M3-W), turning ulcb-kf.dtsi into a
DT overlay would make sense.
That would also solve the issue of the 3 extra DTSes needed for all possible
combinations of ULCB and Kingfisher (r8a7795-es1-h3ulcb-kf.dts,
r8a7795-h3ulcb-kf.dts, r8a7796-h3ulcb-kf.dts (perhaps more to follow?)).

But that's too premature, without upstream support for the easy loading of
DT overlays.

+/ {
+       model = "Renesas M3ULCB Kingfisher board based on r8a7796";
+       compatible = "shimafuji,kingfisher", "renesas,m3ulcb",
+                    "renesas,r8a7796";
+};
And how to support from an overlay the addition of "shimafuji,kingfisher" to
(not replacement of!) the main compatible value?

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
