This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

ASoC: sunxi: Add bindings for sun8i to SPDIF

...

The H3 SoC uses the same SPDIF block as found in earlier SoCs, but the transmit fifo is at a different address.

This doesn't seem like a good idea - note how the changelog says that the transmit FIFO is at a different address, I'd expect this means that people won't be able to use the new compatible without a corresponding code change.

Interesting. I keep trying to automate DT patch selection to deal with issues as this, but it seems like there is always something...

I agree with Mark. I think it would make sense to pick 1bd92af877 as well to deal with this issue.
