I think we do not review U-Boot bindings usually, except these put in
the Linux kernel. There were few targeting U-Boot specifically (e.g.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/u-boot.yaml and
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/nvmem/u-boot,env.yaml) so if you want
our blessing, the bindings should be done in Linux kernel repo.
I am pretty sure that reviewing other project bindings would be too much
of work for me.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
