This is based upon the work by Benoit Cousson [1] and Nicolas Ferre [2] to add
some basic device-tree helpers to retrieve a DMA controller device_node and the
DMA request/channel information.
v5: - minor update to binding documentation
- added loop to exhaustively search for a slave channel in the case where
there could be alternative channels available
v4: - revert the removal of xlate function from v3
- update the proposed binding format and APIs based upon discussions [3]
v3: - avoid passing an xlate function and instead pass DMA engine parameters
- define number of dma channels and requests in dma-controller node
v2: - remove of_dma_to_resource API
- make property #dma-cells required (no fallback anymore)
- another check in of_dma_xlate_onenumbercell() function
