Hi Paolo, Mark, Arnd

I'd like to have your attentions, see below

Just FYI, Yixun has proposed for net-next to back out of the DTS changes
and taking them up through the spacemit tree instead [1], resolving the
conflicts in the spacemit tree. This would certainly mean less headaches
while managing pull requests, as well as allowing Yixun to take care of
code style concerns like node order. However, I do not know what the
norms here are.
Thanks.  They're pretty trivial conflicts so I'm not sure it's critical,
though like you say node order might easily end up the wrong way round
depending on how the conflict resolution gets done.
Thanks for the help and fixing this, but ..

If it's possible to revert the DT patch 3-5, then I'd be happy to take,
but if this is too much job, e.g. the net-next's main branch is imuutable
and reverting it will cause too much trouble, then I'm fine with current
solution - carry the fix via net-next tree..

But please use commit: 0f084b221e2c5ba16eca85b3d2497f9486bd0329 of
https://github.com/spacemit-com/linux/tree/k1/dt-for-next as the merge
parent, which I'm about to send to Arnd (the SoC tree)
No matter which way choose to go, I've created an immutable tag here,

https://github.com/spacemit-com/linux/ spacemit-dt-for-6.18-1
I've sent out the PR of DT changes to SoC tree for inclusion, see 
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250919055525-GYC5766558@gentoo.org/ (local)

There is a potential conflict with commit from net-next:
 e32dc7a936b11e437298bcc4601476befcbcb88f ("riscv: dts: spacemit: Add Ethernet support for Jupiter")

the conflict itself is quite trivial, and should be easy to fix, and I'm also
personally fine to have it solved in net-next tree if Arnd has no objection

But if need assistance from my side, just let me know - I can handle it
- if the ethernet DT patches can be reverted from net-next
- I can apply them at SpacemiT SoC tree
- send a incremental v2 PR to the SoC tree

BTW, The 'for-next' branch is a merged branch contains clock and DT patches
for SpacemiT SoC tree's which isn't immutable..

Let me know what I should proceed, thank you
