Hi Krzysztof,

Apologies for the double email. I forgot to use "Reply All" in my
previous message, so I am resending this to ensure the mailing lists
are properly included.

Thank you for your feedback and for pointing out the issues. You are
absolutely right.

My previous submission was a mistake; it was generated from within an
OpenWrt build tree instead of the upstream Linux repository, which
resulted in incorrect paths and redundant files being included. I also
missed the guidelines regarding the imperative mood and line wrapping
in the commit message.

I have now cloned the upstream torvalds/linux tree and created a clean
v2 patch. The commit message has been rewritten properly, and the
patch now only introduces the dts file in the correct
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/ path, along with the necessary Makefile and
vendor-prefixes.yaml additions.

I ran checkpatch.pl on the new patch (it reports 0 errors; the
remaining warnings are mostly about undocumented compatible strings
for older chips, which I hope are acceptable).

Please find the v2 patch attached. Let me know if any further
adjustments are needed.

Best regards,
Lefteris Koutrakis

This commit adds initial device tree support for the WatchGuard Firebox T30
Please do not use "This commit/patch/change", but imperative mood. See
longer explanation here:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.16/source/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst#L94

Please wrap commit message according to Linux coding style / submission
process (neither too early nor over the limit):
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.4-rc1/source/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst#L597

Please run scripts/checkpatch.pl on the patches and fix reported
warnings. After that, run also 'scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict' on the
patches and (probably) fix more warnings. Some warnings can be ignored,
especially from --strict run, but the code here looks like it needs a
fix. Feel free to get in touch if the warning is not clear.

arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/Makefile. It also documents the watchguard vendor
prefix in vendor-prefixes.yaml.
