I ran checkpatch --strict on this patch and I found a few small issues:

WARNING: Avoid crashing the kernel - try using WARN_ON & recovery code rather than BUG() or BUG_ON()
#1222: FILE: drivers/media/platform/rockchip/rga/rga.c:89:
+ BUG_ON(!ctx);

WARNING: Avoid crashing the kernel - try using WARN_ON & recovery code rather than BUG() or BUG_ON()
#1229: FILE: drivers/media/platform/rockchip/rga/rga.c:96:
+ BUG_ON(!src);

WARNING: Avoid crashing the kernel - try using WARN_ON & recovery code rather than BUG() or BUG_ON()
#1230: FILE: drivers/media/platform/rockchip/rga/rga.c:97:
+ BUG_ON(!dst);

I think you can use WARN_ON here and just return.

CHECK: struct mutex definition without comment
#2235: FILE: drivers/media/platform/rockchip/rga/rga.h:84:
+ struct mutex mutex;

CHECK: spinlock_t definition without comment
#2236: FILE: drivers/media/platform/rockchip/rga/rga.h:85:
+ spinlock_t ctrl_lock;

These two fields need a comment describing what the locks protect.

Also move patch 4/4 to the beginning of the patch series. The bindings
patch should come before the driver.

If I have a v12 with these issues fixed and a MAINTAINERS patch, then
I'll take it on Friday.

Do you want me to take the dts patches or will they go through another tree?

Regards,

Hans
