Like I said above there is a big difference between what you are reporting as upstream and the features that are practically usable upstream. This is creating a lot of frustration on the part of potential users who want to work on mainline, both with the lack of features itself and with the fact that lists of supported features are typically substantially inaccurate which makes people feel they are being mislead.
Got your point. So DTS changes will be upstreamed at a priority.
Thanks.
Temporary solution, (I know people working on mainline hate that..), we have a branch with these dts changes, hope it can help. https://github.com/96boards-hikey/linux/tree/hikey-tracking-dts
The priority has to be to get things into mainline, obviously people can already do things like grab the DT from one of the vendor branches. If it's taking any substantial time to maintain that branch then at least from my point of view it'd be better spent on the actual upstreaming.
