I agree that the code changes need to go in together.
But DT bindings are sort of decoupled from the kernel i general (they are theoretically also used by other OSes such as *BSD) so they can be merged in an orthogonal manner once they are considered finished.
No biggie for me though, if you prefer, I can pull it out.
