there were two reasons for keeping them separate. First was the lack of
documentation and second one is the fact that the BCM2711 supports 40
bit DMA channels with all the possible consequences to the devicetree.

As long as we don't know which channels are identical and which who not,
i thought it would be better to have them all in a separate file.
