[PATCH v2 2/2] dmaengine: pl08x: Use the channel count from the device tree

From: David Yang

Date: Fri Nov 06 2026 - 02:26:44 EST


The Hi3798MV100 DMAC is a plain PL080 except for the channel count: 4
instead of 8. The part ID does not say, and the driver takes the count
from the matched vendor_data entry. The entry is shared between
instances; the adjustment lands in a private copy. dma-common.yaml
already defines dma-channels for a controller node. Honor it.
