Overall, since we are going to expose some properties to the Device
Tree
I would really think twice about naming. Better if we reuse
something
existing already.

So, what I can see is

dmacap,private
dmacap,memcpy

Here is a selling point as well, i.e. standardization.
As I can see these property name used only in "mv_xor" driver. And
they are marked as deprecated.
So, I'm not sure if I should used these names.
Oh, good catch! So, then I leave this to DT experienced guys to decide.
Rob?
Well, maybe they were deprecated for a reason? This all seems like
user configuration to me. So either they don't belong in DT or should
be common if they do.
