I have no objections to the code, but I don't understand what you gain
from merging it through arm-soc. There is no dependency between the
driver and the dts entries in any way, you just need to have both in order
for things to work.

We can always pull in drivers with permission from the maintainer when there
is a good reason to do that, but I don't see that reason for this patch,
so I'd prefer to have Boris merge it through his tree, unless I'm missing
something.
