Signed-off-by: Greentime Hu <redacted>This is not enough, you need to add a Device Tree binding document under Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ which documents this compatible string, as well as additional properties that may be required to describe this hardware block.
We already have Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/moxa,moxart-mac.txt for the same hardware (though used by a different driver). I'd suggest renaming that one to a more generic file name and adding the new compatible string there. Aside from that, every patch should also have a changelog comment. Arnd
