The EBI (External Bus Interface) is used to access external peripherals (NOR, SRAM, NAND, and other specific devices like ethernet controllers). Each device is assigned a CS line and an address range and can have its own configuration (timings, access mode, bus width, ...). This driver provides a generic DT binding to configure a device according to its requirements. For specific device controllers (like the NAND one) the SMC timings should be configured by the controller driver through the matrix and smc syscon regmaps. The first 4 patches introduce 2 syscon devices needed to configure the EBI bus, patch 5 and 6 adds support for the EBI bus, and the remaining patches declares the EBI related nodes in sama5d3 dts[i] files.Can you take the first 4 patches of this series (adding 2 syscon devices and their associated bindings doc) for 3.20 ? Alexandre has worked on multi platform support for Atmel SoCs and his work depends on these two syscon devices. Let me know if you want me to send to send a new series containing only those 4 commits.
Actually, because of other series depending on it and because you already acked them, Nicolas wants to take those 4 patches through the AT91 tree, unless you have any reason to take them through your tree.
