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.

Linus Walleij
