+* ARM PrimeCell PL330 DMA Controller
+
+The ARM PrimeCell PL330 DMA controller can move blocks of memory contents
+between memory and peripherals or memory to memory.
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible: should include both "arm,pl330" and "arm,primecell".
+  - reg: physical base address of the controller and length of memory mapped
+    region.
+  - interrupts: interrupt number to the cpu.
+
+Optional properties:
+  - dma-coherent      : Present if dma operations are coherent
+  - #dma-cells: must be <1>. used to represent the number of integer
+    cells in the dmas property of client device.
+  - dma-channels: contains the total number of DMA channels supported by the DMAC
+  - dma-requests: contains the total number of DMA requests supported by the DMAC
+
+Example:
+
+       pdma0: pdma@12680000 {
+               compatible = "arm,pl330", "arm,primecell";
+               reg = <0x12680000 0x1000>;
+               interrupts = <99>;
+               #dma-cells = <1>;
+               #dma-channels = <8>;
+               #dma-requests = <32>;
+       };
+
+Client drivers (device nodes requiring dma transfers from dev-to-mem or
+mem-to-dev) should specify the DMA channel numbers and dma channel names
+as shown below.
+
+  [property name]  = <[phandle of the dma controller] [dma request id]>;
+  [property name]  = <[dma channel name]>
+
+      where 'dma request id' is the dma request number which is connected
+      to the client controller. The 'property name' 'dmas' and 'dma-names'
+      as required by the generic dma device tree binding helpers. The dma
+      names correspond 1:1 with the dma request ids in the dmas property.
+
+  Example:  dmas = <&pdma0 12
+                   &pdma1 11>;
+           dma-names = "tx", "rx";
