I was looking to apply this, and set about tweaking the commit message
in the process, but the more I tweaked the more I felt I needed to
tweak. So rather than do all that myself, I'll ask that you work
through these requests :)

The things that I'd like addressed are:

1. The subject prefix needs to begin with "ARM: ", so:

   ARM: dts: aspeed: ...

2. I'd rather stick to formalised naming and capitalisation, so NVIDIA,
MSX4, and HPM, Granite Rapids etc

3. "Add a dts for" in the subject is a bit redundant, as we already
have "dts" in the prefix. We can trim that out:

   ARM: dts: aspeed: Add NVIDIA MSX4 HPM platform

4. "HPM" hasn't yet been expanded anywhere and it's still a mystery to
me. Can we unpack that in the commit message?

5. "Adds a dts for ..." in the commit message is self-evident from the
patch. Rather, can you please talk a bit more about the purpose of the
platform? I'd like to see discussion of its use cases and any
interesting points of design or implementation.

Cheers,

Andrew
