You need to list #dma-cells as required here, and which values are accepted by
the driver (I suppose only <1>). You should also explain the format of the
dma-specifier for a slave here for each possible value of #dma-cells.

For each of the standard properties (reg, interrupts, dma-channels), list
whether they are optional or required. Since the example has three interrupts,
you should probably list how many interrupts need to be specified (minimum
and maximum if the number is variable) and in what order to expect them.
