Sounds good to me.

Now that I'm no longer at IBM, and don't have the associated
complications with their Legal department, I'd rather like to resume
having direct commit access to the master dtc tree. So if we could
get Jon and myself, at least, push access to a tree on git.kernel.org,
that would be nice.

(Fwiw, I do have a personal dtc branch tree on github at
https://github.com/dgibson/dtc).
