I think the ARM64 build is now also broken on Linus' master branch,
after the net-next merge? I am not quite sure if the device tree
patches were supposed to land in mainline the way they did.
There's a fix in my net tree and it will go to Linus soon.

There is no clear policy for dt change integration, and honestly
I try to deal with the situation on a case by case basis.
Yep, mainline aarch64-linux-gnu- builds are totally hosed.  DTC fails the build
very early on:
https://travis-ci.com/github/ClangBuiltLinux/continuous-integration/jobs/311246218
https://travis-ci.com/github/ClangBuiltLinux/continuous-integration/jobs/311246270
There was no failure in -next, not sure how we skipped our canary in the coal
mine.
Yes, one of the things linux-next does a really good job at catching is
build breakage so it would've been nice to have seen this there rather
than end up with breakage in Linus' tree :(

Was the timing just bad, or are we missing DT coverage or something else?
It seems issue was not caught in -next because the patch that fixes the issue was already in -next
before this series was pushed.

Sorry for the mess again.
No worries, it's just worthwhile to study failures.  So IIUC, in this case:
mainline was 5.6
the broken patch was merged in 5.7 merge window
a fix was already in -next, but not slated for the new merge window.
(Maybe scheduled for 5.8?)
No, the "fix" is scheduled to go into v5.7 kernel as well. It is here:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kristo/linux tags/ti-k3-soc-for-v5.7

This is already part of ARM SoC tree, and slated for v5.7

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc.git/log/?h=arm/dt

Arnd, Olof,

Can you please help by either queuing the arm/dt entirely or just the K3 SoC 
parts to Linus sooner than later?

Thanks,
Sekhar
