Yes, you are right. I will remove this property.

The binding of syscon is removed due to a usb phy subdevices, which needs 
sometime to figure out the actual property. This is why the syscon binding 
is removed.

I think it is better to use the origianl syscon series to evolve after
the usb phy binding is submitted. The subdevices of syscon may need
much reverse engineering to know its parameters. So at least for now,
the syscon binding is hard to be complete.

Thanks.

This header is not used because the dmamux node is not defined at now.
And considering the limitation of this dmamux, maybe only devices that 
require dma as a must can have the dma assigned. 
Due to the fact, I think it may be a long time to wait for this header
to be used as the binding header.
