Great, I see you already posted that.

Yes, but if you didn't test a patch, then it should be marked with a RFT
prefix in the subject line or at least mention that needs testing since
you lack the HW to test. I've no way to know if you have another board
with a similar design :)

But what I meant is how the patch is supposed to be tested since there
ins't a change in the Exynos5800 Peach Pi DTS? We can of course test
that doesn't break backward compatibility but we don't have a way to
test the actual change.

So I tested with the patch following patch [0] and things are working
correctly. Please include that patch in your series.

I've some comments on your patch though but I'll comment on your lastest
version.

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ARM: dts: Use OF graph for DP to panel connection in
 exynos5800-peach-pi

The DT binding for the Exynos DRM Display Port (DP) driver isn't consistent
since it uses a phandle to describe the connection between the DP port and
the display panel but uses the OF graph ports and endpoints to describe the
connection betwen the DP port, a bridge chip and the panel.

The Exynos DP driver and the DT binding have been changed to allow also to
describe the DP port to panel connection using ports / endpoints (OF graph)
so this patch changes the Exynos5800 Peach Pi DT to make it consistent with
the Exynos5420 Peach Pit that has a eDP to LVDS chip and uses OF graph too.
