Subject: [PATCH v3 4/9] dt-bindings: dma: stm32-dma3: prevent additional
 transfers

Some devices require a single transfer. For example, reading FMC ECC status
registers does not support multiple transfers.
Add the possibility to prevent additional transfers, by setting bit 17 of
the 'DMA transfer requirements' bit mask.
