Thank you!

Hm, I don't think we need that here, as this is really just reordering
and doesn't change any API or binding at all. We need someone responsible
for arch/arm/boot/dts to take it (as there is no maintainer for socfpga*.dts(i),
yet). The arm-soc maintainers than get it from the dts maintainer.
I guess with your ACK there shouldn't be any more problems. But, we'll see.

Thanks,
Steffen
