Thomas Petazzoni 6d8f7abd23 dmaengine: mv_xor: remove support for dmacap,* DT properties
The only reason why we had dmacap,* properties is because back when
DMA_MEMSET was supported, only one out of the two channels per engine
could do a memset operation. But this is something that the driver
already knows anyway, and since then, the DMA_MEMSET support has been
removed.

The driver is already well aware of what each channel supports and the
one to one mapping between Linux specific implementation details (such
as dmacap,interrupt enabling DMA_INTERRUPT) and DT properties is a
good indication that these DT properties are wrong.

Therefore, this commit simply gets rid of these dmacap,* properties,
they are now ignored, and the driver is responsible for knowing the
capabilities of the hardware with regard to the dmaengine subsystem
expectations.

* Marvell XOR engines
Required properties:
- compatible: Should be "marvell,orion-xor" or "marvell,armada-380-xor"
- reg: Should contain registers location and length (two sets)
the first set is the low registers, the second set the high
registers for the XOR engine.
- clocks: pointer to the reference clock
The DT node must also contains sub-nodes for each XOR channel that the
XOR engine has. Those sub-nodes have the following required
properties:
- interrupts: interrupt of the XOR channel
The sub-nodes used to contain one or several of the following
properties, but they are now deprecated:
- dmacap,memcpy to indicate that the XOR channel is capable of memcpy operations
- dmacap,memset to indicate that the XOR channel is capable of memset operations
- dmacap,xor to indicate that the XOR channel is capable of xor operations
- dmacap,interrupt to indicate that the XOR channel is capable of
generating interrupts
Example:
xor@d0060900 {
compatible = "marvell,orion-xor";
reg = <0xd0060900 0x100
0xd0060b00 0x100>;
clocks = <&coreclk 0>;
status = "okay";
xor00 {
interrupts = <51>;
};
xor01 {
interrupts = <52>;
};
};
