I think this particular change is in -next, not v4.13-rc.

Otherwise, whole series is

[PATCH 0/4] net: stmmac: revert the EMAC bindings

[Maxime Ripard]

Hi,

The bindings of the stmmac glue for the new Allwinner EMAC controller
are still controversial and being discussed, even though they've been
merged in 4.13.

In order not to introduce any binding we do not really want to commit
to in a stable release, especially since that would mean we would have
to support both the right and old bindings, let's revert them.

We will reintroduce them in due time, once the discussion has settled
down.

The first three patches should go through the arm-soc tree, the last
one through the net tree. All of them must be treated as fixes.

Thanks!
Maxime
