You seem to be commenting on a 0/4 cover letter here ...

Ha, the exception to the general rule ;-)

Hehehe.

[1] "[PATCH 1/2] ARM: dts: renesas: Drop ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22 from PHY compatible string on all
RZ boards"

I haven't seen these patches.

They are deprecated.

It does not cover all the SoCs/boards. If Marek want to take over, He can send next version
covering all Renesas boards + binding change.
Isn't this series effectively exactly that ?

I believe we still have e.g. the KSZ8041 and KSZ9031 PHY nodes to fix,
for both RZ and R-Car boards? Some of them were covered by [1] and
[2] above.

I hope this is now all addressed by two board fixes [3] [4] and one larger fix [5]. But there are also other warnings on the arm32 side which are not related to ethernet schemas.
