The upstream bcm2835-dma driver only handles the older BCM2835 SoCs
up to the Raspberry Pi 3. The later BCM2711/BCM2712 add extra channels
that support 40-bit DMA4 channels so add support so this works upstream.
The first patch updates the bindings, them patches 2-5 do some
refactoring and add the support for the newer SoCs.
Finally patches 6 and 7 add the nodes to the base device tree and
patches 8 and 9 enable it and configure HDMI audio to use them as
per the down stream device trees.
The series was assisted considerably by Claude Opus 5.5 based on the
various downstream Raspberry Pi patches and tested on a number of
RPi5B revC/D, RPi4B and a RPi3B+ all running Fedora 45. Checkpatch
and dtbs_check pass clean.
