It looks a bit odd to have different vendor prefix for the same?
device.
But we can understand the reason.??Just curious if this is what vendor
kernel does?
No, I did it mostly to be consistent with the location of the DT files
under "nxp". I'll change this to match the "freescale" location.
Vendor tree mostly is still using fsl,imx8mq-xx.

And many binding doc format is:"compatible : Should be "fsl,<soc>-gpio".
So we can't use 'nxp' prefix here without changing binding doc.

Then if we decided to use 'fsl' prefix, probably we may want to fix the
rest of them in this file as well.
Yes, this is changed consistently to "fsl," for the next revision of
the patchset.
And i see the dtsi file does not include Freescale/NXP copyright,
is there a reason?
The dtsi is quite different from the downstream version. But you are
right, I looked extensively at the downstream version, so I'll add the
NXP copyright.

BTW: Could you check internally to see if Freescale/NXP would be okay
with relicensing the DT bits I pulled from downstream as dual GPL-2.0
and MIT, to align with other DTs in the kernel?
BTW it's quite strange that my gmail did not receive your MX8MQ patch
series except clk part.
Lucas, Could you help have me CCed next time?
I'd like to help review and test the patch series.

For this time, can you help send them all to me as attachment?
I'm about to send v2 of the series. I'll CC you on the submission.
(You can also send all IMX related patches to linux-imx at nxp.com maillist
i created recently for tracking all IMX related upstream activities.
Most Freescale/NXP driver owners are in this list that could help on
the review. Shawn, do you think if i can put it in MAINTAINER file?)
That's great news that there is now a common address for this. I think
it would be a good idea to have it added to MAINTAINERS as a reviewer.

Regards,
Lucas
