Hi Hauke,
thank you for suggesting adding the dts patch to mainline kernel,
so here it is.
I feel Rafal technically still have the copyrights, this is pretty
much just a few string updates for the ea6500v2. However with this
dts in latest OpenWrt 18.06 loads and installs on my device.
I will be available to do more testing should it be required.

Hi Rene,
Please send you patch inline in the mail and not as an attachment, I
would suggest to use "git send-email" for sending the patch.
Adding Rafal as copyright owner is ok, like you did it now. You could
mention in the file header on which dts file this is based.
Hauke
Hi Hauke,
Updated the file header per your suggestion.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: dts: BCM5301X: Add basic DT for Linksys EA6500 V2
It's wireless home router based on BCM4708A0 with BCM4360 + BCM4331
wireless chipsets. The 5GHz chip currently isn't supported only due
to missing compatible firmware.
the DTS here was based on the Linksys EA6300 V1 DTS, only changing
the model strings

To the broadcom kernel maintainers, (for BCM4708 CPUs)
I just want to add a little attention to this patch again...
let me know if there's any concerns and I will try to address highlighted issues
as soon as possible.
I've been running the development builds of OpenWrt kernels, where
this patch has
been included, on my Linksys EA6500v2 router for the past months,
updating as new
builds are available. With only the on board BCM4360 chip (5GHz WiFi) is being
disabled, has so far been stable for my use case.
thank you for the consideration
Rene (aka Katana_Steel)

(Please no top posting). Your submission did make it through patchwork
and looks okay, I will run build tests and queue it up for 4.21 if
everything looks good. Thanks.

Now applied to devicetree/next, thanks. Please use git
format-patch/send-email in the future, as the patch was mangled a little
bit by being sent within the message body.
Thank you
