Hi I'm going to send a patch that extends existing driver with support for a new variant of the existing device. The changes in the drivr code are rather small, around 100 lines of code. Apart from the driver changes I would like to also update Documentation/devicetree/bindings for this driver to add the information about the new supported variant. Should I split the changes and send them separately? If so, how can I make sure that the documentation changes won't be merged to kernel source tree until the drive's modifications are merged? (if ofc maintainer decides to integrate them).
Make it a patch series, first patch does the bindings change and the second does the driver change. You will find thousands of examples of people doing this on the development mailing lists, it's the preferred way. good luck! greg k-h
