Rashmi, is it safe to apply this separately from the phy driver/dt changes? Then I can queue this via my mmc tree, if you like.No, the phy driver/dt changes must go together with "mmc: sdhci-of-arasan: Add intel Thunder Bay SOC support to the arasan eMMC driver" patch. Why is that? What could happen, emmc driver will complain about phy not found and bail right?This is right, but ideally both mmc:phy and mmc: sdhci-of-arasan driver code changes should go together
If patches are well written and can be standalone, we (maintainers) ideally prefer to queue things on a per subsystem basis, because it's just easier. That said, I also noticed that a new compatible string was added, "intel,thunderbay-sdhci-5.1". This needs to be documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/arasan,sdhci.yaml, in a separate patch, preceding $subject patch. Kind regards Uffe
