I'd like to recommend doing the opposite next time. Create a separate series for
the fixes, and place your fresh bindings, driver and updated DTS in a v2.

The reason is that you are sending 1 series to 3 maintainers, and we all have to
keep a different patchwork up-to-date, having v2 makes it clear as we can see
from the changelog what happened and why it got rewritten.
