Bindings should be a separate patch and must be in schema format now.

You probably should do a patch per driver too.

compatible strings should be specific enough to identify bugs/features
of a specific implementation unless there's another way to do that (e.g.
version registers).

What's the range?

All these compatible strings need binding schemas, too.

Do these defines need to be public to *all* the kernel? Doesn't look
like it.

Same question on the other headers.
