I'm glad to see all of this in general. In specific, this work will get merged once (a) the DTS changes are upstream to the kernel and (b) TI has/plans on doing further cleanup and re-org of the K3 support code overall and how J7200 is handled vs J721E vs J784S4. At least the parts that matter for this series I am hopeful won't take too long, and this can be rebased on top of that work without being too difficult. -- Tom
