Sorry about that. :/ I agree it's frustrating to do the same work
twice... I admit I was lazy and only wrote a changelog in the
cover-letter. I will try to add a changelog to each changed patch next
time.
The r-b tag was dropped in v4 because I removed the QoS functionality until
I find a better way to handle it. Hence, the 'nxp,blk-ctl' property in
the binding needed to be dropped as well.
Thanks,
