Re: [PATCH] dmaengine: xilinx: Treat "xlnx,flush-fsync" as a flag
From: Pandey, Radhey Shyam

The Xilinx DMA binding documents "xlnx,flush-fsync" as a boolean flag.
The driver read it as an integer cell and warned when it was absent,
which does not match the documented property encoding.
The original .txt binding (before schema conversion) was not a boolean:
xlnx,flush-fsync: Tells which channel to Flush on Frame sync.
It takes following values:
{1}, flush both channels
{2}, flush mm2s channel
{3}, flush s2mm channel
xilinx_dma_device struct stored it in u32 flush_on_fsync. However yaml
conversion silently changed this to bool which was incorrect. I think
we should change in YAML to make xlnx,flush-fsync as u32?
We can skip about irq-delay mention here.
Use the boolean helper so the driver follows the binding. Leave
"xlnx,irq-delay" as an 8-bit property read because the hardware field
is 8 bits wide.
