Well, not really. I'm just forward porting the driver from downstream kernels,
so we can support this new SoC. Not really a hardware _expert_ for all the
devices I plan to be pushing.

I am aware of that. In fact, at Collabora we encourage all the kernel
developers to convert to YAML, if/when possible.

The devicetree for RK3566 and RK3568 is under discussion, in fact it was submitted today.
Rockhip is leading that, and doing a great job already :)

Meanwhile, I'd like to merge the small drivers (thermal, pmic, dwmac, io-domains and so on),
so they are ready when the devicetree lands.

Most if not all of these devices just need a new compatible string. It would really delay
things if I aim to convert all those bindings docs to YAML first, so let's please avoid that...
... unless it's a new hard-rule that DT maintainers have agreed on.

Having said that, if you want to help the RK3568 bringup adventure,
converting the bindings to YAML, that would be really appreciated! Of course, I know
you've converted plenty of them already, and I already appreciate that :)

Thanks,
Ezequiel
