Hi all,

This patch series introduces Peripheral DMA (PDMA) support for the 
SpacemiT K3 SoC, leveraging the existing mmp_pdma driver.

The K3 PDMA IP is largely based on the design found in the previous 
SpacemiT K1 SoC, but introduces a few key architectural differences:
1. It features a variable extended DRCMR base address for DMA request 
   numbers (>= 64) depending on the hardware implementation.
2. Unlike the K1 SoC, where some DMA masters had memory addressing 
   limitations (requiring a dedicated dma-bus), the K3 DMA masters 
   have full memory addressing capabilities.

The series is structured as follows:
- Patch 1-3: Introduce the necessary dt-bindings, including DMA request 
  definitions for both K1 and K3, and the new K3 compatible string.
- Patch 4-5: Refactor the mmp_pdma driver to support variable extended 
  DRCMR bases, and add the specific implementation/ops for the K3 SoC.
- Patch 6: Fixes a critical clock issue where the DDR bus clock 
  (top_dclk) could be gated by CCF, which would cause DMA engines to 
  hang and lead to system instability.
- Patch 7: Finally, instantiates the PDMA controller node in the 
  SpacemiT K3 device tree.
