I was wondering if should use the opportunity to expose those values as
DT properties instead of hard-wiring them to a compatible string in the
driver every time we add support for a new SoC?
We could introduce a new compatible string (say: "allwinner,sunxi-dma"),
then describe properties for the number of channels and requests and
vchans and parse those from the DT at probe time.
With this we might be able to support future SoCs without Linux *driver*
changes, by just providing the right DT. This would have worked already
for instance for the A83T support, which just changed those values.

For instance with this quick patch below (just compile tested, and without
your refactoring).
The DT node would then read something like:
	dma: dma-controller@...02000 {
		compatible = "allwinner,sun50i-a64-dma",
			     "allwinner,sunxi-dma";
		reg = <0x01c02000 0x1000>;
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 50 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
		clocks = <&ccu CLK_BUS_DMA>;
		resets = <&ccu RST_BUS_DMA>;
		#dma-cells = <1>;
		allwinner,max_channels = <8>;
		allwinner,max_requests = <27>;
		allwinner,max_vchans = <38>;
	};

Cheers,
Andre.
