Binding need to be cc: to device tree, however they are generally
merged by some other subsystem, where ever the driver belongs. Rob
will review the binding, give his reviewed-by: and then Jakub or David
will merge both to net-next.

You can send both to device tree, or you can add a Cc: line to the
binding patch, before your own signed-off. git send-email will see it
and extend the list of recipients with whatever email address you put
there.
