Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the pci tree got a conflict in:

  arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/fsl-ls1028a.dtsi

between commit:

  68e36a429ef5 ("arm64: dts: ls1028a: Move thermal-zone out of SoC")

from the arm-soc tree and commit:

  8d49ebe713ab ("arm64: dts: ls1028a: Add PCIe controller DT nodes")

from the pci tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.

Bjorn, we ask that driver subsystem maintainers don't pick up DT
changes since it causes conflicts like these.

Is it easy for you to drop this patch, or are we stuck with it?
Ideally it should never have been sent to you in the first place. :(

Lorenzo, is it feasible for you to drop it from your pci/layerscape
branch and repush it?  If so, I can redo the merge into my "next"
branch.

Done. Should we ignore all dts updates from now onwards ?

Thanks,
Lorenzo

Thanks, I updated my "next" branch to incorporate this.

Thanks!

Indeed, dts updates should only go in through the platform maintainers
(i.e. through soc tree), unless there are strong reasons to bring them
in through driver trees.

If there's a need for a dt-include to be shared between driver and
dts, getting them on a stable branch that's merged through both trees
is usually the best way. Reach out when that happens and we can
coordinate.
