No, I cannot yet :/

Tiger is only available in Linux kernel v6.9-rcX and dts/ in U-Boot is 
currently at v6.8.

What are we supposed to do for this then?

Would bumping dts/ to an -rc tag be ok for U-Boot? After all, those are 
rc and not "stable" branches. Do we need to wait for the actual kernel 
release before bumping dts/ (so wait for up to 2 months before 
supporting a board in U-Boot)? Should we have an intermediate solution 
where we use the "old" model (NOT OF_UPSTREAM) until we bump dts/ to the 
latest kernel release and the DTS is available through OF_UPSTREAM?

Cheers,
Quentin
