What additional testing beside building and booting do you prefer at this
stage? I put my Tested-by for this patch because it includes the google,gs101.h
header which is used by the DT and clock controller driver during boot. Maybe
I should have been more clear on what I tested in each patch instead of only
mentioning how I tested in the cover letter?

Sorry for the confusion.
