I'd call the task of checking if anything breaks with the proposed
changes testing. For changes to .c files that most likely requires
complilation and running the resulting code on a machine. For dt binding
changes it means "testing" if all the existing device trees still
conform to the new binding because you cannot compile and run the
binding specifications. So in my mind this is still testing and a
Tested-by trailer is ok and welcome for me.
And from a more social side: I really appreciate if someone invests the
effort to check patches, by whatever procedure is appropriate, and
honoring that with a Tested-by: tag is the least we can do.
Best regards
Uwe
