Hi Greg,
I never said that I would resend another update for this current
serie (unless of course if it was to address a new comment). Re-reading
that email made me realise that it was maybe not perfectly clear the
way I wrote it.

What I said was that, once V8 was finally applied and
incorporated in the kernel, then I would send a completely new and
different serie to address issues/concerns/improvements/suggestions
noted during the review of this serie (example: conversion of bindings
to YAML and improve DTS node names, etc). We already agreed with some
maintainers (ex: Conor Dooley) that it was reasonnable to do so.

That is why I asked Andy if we were good to go with V8 and he
confirmed that, and that it was now up to you to integrate it if your
review was satisfactory.

Hope this clears things and we can integrate it soon.

Thank you, Hugo.
