That's fine, I can fix it up when I apply.

However, I was unable to apply your patch:

 Applying: Rename aspeed-bmc-opp-flash-layout.dtsi
 error: corrupt patch at line 173
 Patch failed at 0001 Rename aspeed-bmc-opp-flash-layout.dtsi

I notice this patch has some strange whitespace. I suggest you use git
send-email to post patches to the list, as this stops your email
client from breaking things. If you really don't want to use
send-email, please take a look at the information here:

  https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/email-clients.html#email-clients

Another nit: convention is to use some prefixes to indicate which part
of the kernel you're using. Take a look at what others have done:

$ git log --oneline  arch/arm/boot/dts/
67f0843b79e7 ARM: dts: aspeed: romulus: Fix identify LED
6b6e0a3593d3 ARM: dts: aspeed: romulus: Add aspeed fan tach
75c4ae797517 ARM: dts: aspeed: Use new occ-hwmon driver for P8 systems
53bc8cfca31d ARM: dts: aspeed: Add aspeed-lpc-snoop g4 and bmc-quanta-q71l

I'd suggest something like: "ARM: dts: aspeed: Rename OpenBMC flash layout"

Cheers,
