[PATCH v4 1/8] dmaengine: of_dma: Support for DMA routers

DMA routers are transparent devices used to mux DMA requests from
peripherals to DMA controllers. They are used when the SoC integrates more
devices with DMA requests then their controller can handle.
DRA7x is one example of such SoC, where the sDMA can hanlde 128 DMA request
lines, but in SoC level it has 205 DMA requests.

The of_dma_router will be registered as of_dma_controller with special
xlate function and additional parameters. The driver for the router is
responsible to craft the dma_spec (in the of_dma_route_allocate callback)
which can be used to requests a DMA channel from the real DMA controller.
This way the router can be transparent for the system while remaining generic
enough to be used in different environments.

+* DMA router
+
+DMA routers are transparent IP blocks used to route DMA request lines from
+devices to the DMA controller. Some SoCs (like TI DRA7x) have more peripherals
+integrated with DMA requests than what the DMA controller can handle directly.
+
+Required property:
+- dma-masters:		phandle of the DMA controller or list of phandles for
+			the DMA controllers the router can direct the signal to.
+- #dma-cells: 		Must be at least 1. Used to provide DMA router specific
+			information. See DMA client binding below for more
+			details.
+
+Optional properties:
+- dma-requests: 	Number of incoming request lines the router can handle.
+- In the node pointed by the dma-masters:
+	- dma-requests:	The router driver might need to look for this in order
+			to configure the routing.
+
+Example:
+	sdma_xbar: dma-router at 4a002b78 {
+		compatible = "ti,dra7-dma-crossbar";
+		reg = <0x4a002b78 0xfc>;
+		#dma-cells = <1>;
+		dma-requests = <205>;
+		ti,dma-safe-map = <0>;
+		dma-masters = <&sdma>;
+	};
