Thank you for the report!

I had verified the arm/dt branch by itself, but didn't recheck it after I
merged it into the for-next branch. At least that one is easy to fix
up as I don't send the combined branch to Linus, and the arm/dt
branch does not have the problem.

I had following patch to have the nodes in alphabetical order:

Sorry for not having mentioned this conflict in the pull-request.

No worries,

I had assumed you had them sorted by unit-address, so I had them
in the wrong order as well. Fixing up both issues in for-next
now by redoing the merge.

OMG, you're right, it's by unit-address: I'm removing my at91-next for now to not cause more confusion and merge conflicts.

Not a big deal if you already re-did the merge.

Best regards,
Nicolas
