Applied to master, thanks.

I was wondering if, even if those patches are not meant for upstream
as is, something could be proposed upstream. While I believe this
check was added for a specific reason, it would be nice to have some
control to override it for specific cases, like Buildroot. For example
a variable like "make MV_DDR_SKIP_GIT_CHECK=1 ..."

What do you think?

Best regards,

Julien.
