From 9c08be64059e562b2ddcfe884ab35610117e6371 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Krzysztof Kozlowski Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2024 09:37:50 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] docs: dt: submitting-patches: add commit subject prefix in reversed format ASoC, media, regulators and SPI subsystems prefer commits starting with subsystem name (e.g. "spi: dt-bindings:"), so document this to avoid confusing contributors.
