Great :-)

In fact, for most of the changes there should be zero impact on
the .dtsi or .dts files. Most of the changes are about the subnames
(which don't appear in DT) or adding new functions.

However, you indeed pointed two cases I missed. So I guess I'll have to
review the entire series to double check what is the impact on the DT.
But before doing that, it'd be great to have your point of on the
patches that actually break the DT backward compatibility. If there are
to be rejected anyway, I'd rather not spend more time on them.

Thanks a lot!

Thomas
