A couple of comments:

We ask that you base your branches on a full -rc release from Linus, and it
doesn't have to be the very latest one at that -- we almost prefer one that's
already in our tree.

Please push the tag to the server so it's part of the pull request. And please
write up a few sentences about what is in the branch/tag in the tag itself. See
how some of the other maintainers do it for an idea of what to have there: I'm
mostly looking for higher-level description of what is there.

The subject on this is too long and wrapped weirdly. I'd just name it
"dts: rename DW apb timers".

These changes are all DT-related, so in the future as you have more patches
this would go in a "dt" topic/category branch, and other updates might go in
other branches. That's something you'll learn as you go (and we'll help you :).


I'll take this branch and rebase/reapply the patches this time, but keep the
above in mind for next release. :)
