Cc Daniel,

BTW, J2 core is rather odd platform to work on... Even cross compiling
and building that DTB is tricky. If I failed, I have doubts that you
tested the DTS with your binding.

This applies to all GSoC or some Linux Mentorship programs: I suggest to
choose for conversion bindings with more users and bigger possible
impact. So first I would look at ARM64 and ARMv7 platforms. We still
have around 1000 and 3500 unique warnings about undocumented compatibles
for ARM64 defconfig and ARM multi_v7! That's the platforms you should
choose.

Not SuperH, ARC, or whatever with only one DTS which is difficult to
build for regular developer.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
