Hi Krzysztof,

with your feedback on the latest version I will take up the issues from 
v2 once again. To be sure that I do not miss anything in upcoming v5 
I will comment on all your feedback.

After reading this another 4 times now I think I understand. You mean
"put changelog below signed-off-by". Will do with next patch.

In between renamed to compatible "realtek,rtl8380m-serdes.yaml". I hope
that fits the requested naming convention.

Was restyled in between. If this is still an issue in latest version, please advise.

All these have been removed.

Only one example left.
