It gets hard when we mix driver bindings with dts patches. Please do not
do that - in this case, the binding would be better go through Lorenzo
Pieralisi <lorenzo.pieralisi@xxxxxxx> (who needs to be in the To list)
and the corresponding list linux-pci@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx in CC

This allows driver bindings to be independently merged of the dts
changes - also allows dts maintainers to pick patches after ensuring
bindings (and any corresponding driver changes) are merged into master
(which locks things down). please disconnect the series such that the
dts can alone be picked up without dtbs_check problems.

That said, i'd rather we rebase this after Andrew's cleanup series in
[1] and follow the same pattern for new nodes being added.
