[PATCH] dmaengine: at_xdmac: get the number of DMA channels from device tree

From: Tony Han <tony.han at microchip.com>

In case of kernel runs in non-secure mode, the number of DMA channels can
be got from device tree since the value read from GTYPE register is "0" as
it's always secured.
As the number of channels can never be negative, update them to the type
"unsigned".
