We do not typical provide tags from dts patches, but that's irrelevant
for you, because this (and effectively all other dts) patch(es) should
not go through the net tree to begin with.
Instead, the platform maintainers should review and/or apply it.

Additionally, it seems the contributor's commit message suggests
that they didn't intend this patch to be applied at all?

Cheers,
Conor.
