A lot of carried over review tags here, so please let me know if there's anything that needs to be reviewed here, otherwise I'd like to merge the series for 6.2 by the end of the day.

I just responded to patch 4, which has a small (?) outstanding issue / discussion. I asked Rob and Arınç's opinions as to whether it should hold up this series. Everything else is good to go, as far as I understand.

No reply :( Since this is "just" DT bindings (as in shouldn't functionally break anything) - if Rob gives us a green light we can still pull it into the mid-merge window follow up. But I'll drop it from pw for now so it doesn't distract us.
