Along with that add documentation regarding how to run DT bindings schema checks. Signed-off-by: Sumit Garg --- Changes in v5: - Document how to cherry-pick fixes from devicetree-rebasing tree. Changes in v4: - Switched subtree to be imported as dts/upstream sub-directory rather than devicetree-rebasing sub-directory to better suite U-Boot directory structure. - Since we now have v6.7-dts tag available now, so switch subtree to that from its beginning. - Clarify subtree uprev schedule as a separate documentation section.
