Hello Matthias,

Thanks for your comments.
The purpose of this patch is to confirm we can separate mt8195 mmsys
into two compatibles. I think this modification is accepted.

After this, I think Jason-JH will push another series with this binding
patch. In Jason-JH's series, we will modify mmsys driver based on this.
And I think we don't need to keep "mediatek,mt8195-mmsys" if we also
modify mmsys drivers in the same series.

Is it ok that postpones to pick this patch until we finish review
follow-up series?

BRs,
