Looks like this patch series has fallen into the cracks a little.

I think I assumed this info would end in the description of patch v2 1/3 
(in order to answer Rob's feedback) and I sat and waited for a respin. 
On the other hand... I didn't actually say that explicitly anywhere! 
So... I'd recommend a respin perhaps with a small bit of text explaining 
how the vendor can state that any existing dts files will be updated. 
This is a peripheral device so these strings are probably embedded into 
OEM devicetrees rather than exclusively under the control of the vendor.


Daniel.
