* IMG Multi-threaded DMA Controller (MDC)

Required properties:
- compatible: Must be "img,pistachio-mdc-dma".
- reg: Must contain the base address and length of the MDC registers.
- interrupts: Must contain all the per-channel DMA interrupts.
- clocks: Must contain an entry for each entry in clock-names.
  See ../clock/clock-bindings.txt for details.
- clock-names: Must include the following entries:
  - sys: MDC system interface clock.
- img,cr-periph: Must contain a phandle to the peripheral control syscon
  node which contains the DMA request to channel mapping registers.
- img,max-burst-multiplier: Must be the maximum supported burst size multiplier.
  The maximum burst size is this value multiplied by the hardware-reported bus
  width.
- #dma-cells: Must be 3:
  - The first cell is the peripheral's DMA request line.
  - The second cell is a bitmap specifying to which channels the DMA request
    line may be mapped (i.e. bit N set indicates channel N is usable).
  - The third cell is the thread ID to be used by the channel.

Optional properties:
- dma-channels: Number of supported DMA channels, up to 32.  If not specified
  the number reported by the hardware is used.

Example:

mdc: dma-controller@18143000 {
	compatible = "img,pistachio-mdc-dma";
	reg = <0x18143000 0x1000>;
	interrupts = <GIC_SHARED 27 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 28 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 29 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 30 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 31 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 32 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 33 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 34 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 35 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 36 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 37 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
		     <GIC_SHARED 38 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
	clocks = <&system_clk>;

	img,cr-periph = <&cr_periph>;

	#dma-cells = <3>;

	...
	dmas = <&mdc 9 0xffffffff 0>, <&mdc 10 0xffffffff 0>;
