All Tegra device drivers will soon move to generic DMA device tree bindings. Add the required properties to the Tegra DT files to support that. The legacy property nvidia,dma-request-selector will be removed after all drivers have been converted, in order to maintain bisectability. Changes: - Add '#dma-cells' for apbdma nodes - And properties 'dmas' and 'dma-names' for apbdma client nodes - update apbdma DT binding doc Signed-off-by: Richard Zhao <redacted> --- .../devicetree/bindings/dma/tegra20-apbdma.txt | 1 + arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra114.dtsi | 27 ++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra20.dtsi | 27 ++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra30.dtsi | 25 ++++++++++++++++++++This patch should be split differently. Patch 1 in the series should include the binding document change and the associated DMA driver change, which will support both the old and new bindings.
Binding doc is used to define the way dts describe hw. I still think it is better to squash into this patch. But it's not such a big deal. I'll move it to dma patch since you like it. Thanks Richard

Patch 2 should contain the *.dtsi changes.The reason I update apbdma binding doc here is to make it consistent with the mass properties added in dtsi files. apbdma has less places of changes than dtsi files.It'll still be consistent if you update the binding documentation first, then update the *.dtsi to conform to the new binding docs. It won't affect the number of changes.
