[PATCH v3 2/2] dt-bindings: dma: adi,axi-dmac: deprecate adi,channels node
Posted by David Lechner 3 weeks, 4 days ago
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.

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