I do require Rob / DT maintainer to ack the DT yaml conversion and the
j7200 binding addition.

Besides yaml and compatibility acks, there are a few ancillary
comments to fix up.. Kconfig -> I think we should either stay with
status quo and create a new config option per SoC OR rename the
config to be generic (using j7200 with j721e SoC config is not very
consistent). In addition, around the stuff that is going to next in
parallel, the dts is generating additional warnings as well (DSS
etc). I think it might be easier if we wait for DT maintainer ack on
bindings prior to giving further cosmetic comments (To allow for any
additional changes to come in to -next).
