Oh right, somehow didn't find you in the committer list when I wrote

Yes I think just taking care of the simpler panel patches (after they
have the DT ack from Rob Herring or some other DT expert) would be
great. And if Philipp wants to help to too when he's back we can fix
him up with commit rights. I'll be away for the next 3 weeks, but
Sean/Maarten/Gustavo should be around ...

Thanks, Daniel
