[PATCH V5 0/2] of: Add generic device tree DMA helpers

[Jon Hunter]

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
