I can't take this without the DT maintainers acking the DT changes.
So can you resend this so that they can notice that it requires their
review?
thanks,

The DT maintainers were CC’ed for the DT related files. However, I suspect they won’t
ACK it until you ACK the actual serial port driver.

It goes the other way around :)
Does the serial driver portion in the first patch, require any more changes from your point of view
as the serial driver maintainer? If there are no issues with the driver itself, we can engage with the DT team to figure out why they have not
ACK or provided any feedback on the DT portion. Are you good with the content of the serial driver itself minus the lack of ACK from the DT team?

I was waiting for the DT review before I looked at the serial driver
again.

Seems like we might be in a catch-22 situation here. This patch series has been in review around 6 months no and I have yet to see any feedback from the DT team.
Do you ever reach out to them to try to get closer? If you have had luck, perhaps you can send a quick email to them to get this driver off your plate. I’m sure you
would rather have this resolved on off your queue so you can have more time for other more important matters.
