I have converted bindings to yaml version in the patch and also added imx8dxl compatible along-with the conversion. Please see the difference in compatible entries from txt to yaml conversion[1].
Kindly let me know do I need to submit different patch for adding new compatible or ok to include in the conversion patch itself?
