Hi Conor,

Thank you for your response.

That's a fair point about the risk of the DRM approach being rejected.
While I can't be certain, I'm hopeful that part is relatively
straightforward, as it primarily integrates other recently reviewed
(though not yet merged) components like the inno-hdmi bridge and dc8200
drivers.

To be honest, I was more concerned that the DT part of the series would
be more problematic. Given that, I would find it very helpful to get
your feedback on the DT aspects now, if you have the time.

Best regards,
