Subject: [PATCH 2/2] dt-bindings: dma: adi,axi-dmac: deprecate adi,channels
 node

Deprecate the adi,channels node in the adi,axi-dmac binding. Prior to
IP version 4.3.a, this information was required. Since then, there are
memory-mapped registers that can be read to get the same information.

Signed-off-by: David Lechner <dlechner@...libre.com>
---

For context, the adi,channels node has not been required in the Linux
kernel since [1].
