Sigh. I completely dropped the ball on this, and I didn't see it
included in any of your pull requests for 4.12 since I never actually
acked that approach.
I've applied the patches onto a dt/include-paths stable branch, but
we're late for merging dependent code on top of it for 4.12.

Didn't you merge the patches into a branch already and the rk3399-gru
support on top of it?
Aka

Which one of my previous pull requests was already based on.

Adding Maxime on Cc since I asked him to move over to the new include
