Thanks for your feedback, do you want me to include the description of
dma-channels from the diff in the commit message?
The reason for this change is:
"This property is required when the channel count cannot be read from
the XDMAC_GTYPE register (which occurs when accessing from the
non-secure world on certain devices)."
Isn't this already clear from the description in the diff?
