Wouldn't 'dma-requests = <0>' cover this case?

Hi Rob,

I do not think so. With requests = 0, it means that actually the DMA 
controller is unusable ?
Since you suggest requests = 0, it means that it cannot take requests at 
all ?
I do not find another example in current DT with this property set to zero.

Eugen
