Not different than all other SoCs. There is no dependency, you just send
your patch and tell where the bindings are. Just like I asked in the [1]
you linked on samsung-soc. Just like all Qualcomm upstreaming goes, e.g.
SM8650 I linked here.

Just like maintainer-soc profiles are explaining. I told you to read
them on IRC.

Your way is contradictory to three sources describing process and two of
these sources - my samsung-soc posting and maintainers-soc-clean-dts
profile - are known to you.

No, from where did you get such impression? Maintainers-soc-clean-dts
explicitly covers this case and I WROTE IT, so how can I prefer
something else?

Follow SM8650 style or what's written in maintainer soc profiles.

Best regards,
