[PATCH v11 1/3] dt-bindings: dma: Add Amlogic A9 SoC DMA

[sashiko-bot at kernel.org]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Low] The macros DMA_TX and DMA_RX in the global DT binding header lack an Amlogic/SoC specific prefix, leading to namespace pollution and potential build conflicts.

dt-bindings: dma: Add Amlogic A9 SoC DMA

This commit adds device tree binding documentation for the Amlogic A9 SoC
general-purpose DMA controller. It introduces the YAML schema and a header
file defining the channel type macros.

[Severity: Low]
Are these macro names too generic for a global dt-bindings header?

Since headers in include/dt-bindings/ are globally visible and frequently
included by C drivers, unprefixed names like DMA_TX and DMA_RX could lead
to namespace pollution and macro redefinition build failures if a driver
includes this alongside other headers that use the same common names.

Would it be safer to add a vendor or SoC prefix, such as AMLOGIC_A9_DMA_TX?
