It is a DT bindings patch.

This is also a DT bindings patch.

DT bindings are soft dependencies for drivers and DTS.
DT binding definitions (I don't have any this time) are hard
dependencies for drivers, DTS, and examples and DT bindings.
Arnd merges dt-bindings PRs in the soc DTS branch.

So the second commit is subject to II.3:

  3) For a series going through multiple trees, the binding patch should be
     kept with the driver using the binding.

In this particular case, I could have included it in my drivers branch.
Where do I put SoC-specific DT binding changes that are not picked
up by anyone else (I don't have any this time)?

Thanks!
