Hi Pantelis,

looking forward to it. I see you have a large number of new branches in your
repository. It would help a lot to know which patches from which branch I need
to get DT overlay support to work. For example, the mainline-pdev-fixes branch
seems relevant, but that is not immediately obvious (and may be a wrong
assumption).

Are you trying to get the patches in the various branches into the upstream
kernel ?

Thanks a lot!
