checkpatch.pl warns about this line due to not using /* ... */ syntax
for headers. I could fix that up on my own, but it made me realize that
you are licensing this file under GPL-2.0+ only, whereas the .dts[i] is
supposed to be dual-licensed.

Can you please give your consent to make this

/* SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0+ OR MIT) */
You can change the license to GPL-2.0+ OR MIT.

like my S500 and S700 bindings?

Question: Should it still be GPL-2.0+ or the new GPL-2.0-or-later?
I think GPL-2.0+ is fine.
So... when I saw this I did wonder why one would knowly choose to use a
deprecated license identifier (https://spdx.org/licenses/ ).

However running `git diff v4.17..v4.18-rc1` through some filters does
indicate that GPL-2.0+ is the more popular choice by 256 to 0! Doesn't
mean you couldn't break the mould though ;-).
I did grep through the source and hit with same numbers ;-) But I was not
sure whether to break the mould or not, so chose the safest path :)

Since you already gave the green signal, I think we can move to new style
identifier.

Thanks,
Mani 
Daniel.
