do you use the DTB file from 5.14.x or 5.16x?

I guess this is related to this commit:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=linux-5.16.y&id=266423e60ea1b953fcc0cd97f3dad85857e434d1

Unfortunately this is a change which requires this DTS fix:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=linux-5.16.y&id=c8013355ead68dce152cf426686f8a5f80d88b40

So DTB and kernel must "match".
