Add devicetree binding for the TI DA8xx/OMAP-L1x/AM17xx/AM18xx
MultiChannel Buffered Serial Port (McBSP)

The optional register range "dat" is not implemented at the moment.
The current driver supports only DMA into RX/TX registers but no FIFO.
Once the FIFO is implemented in the driver the "dat" range will be used.

I would drop the -audio postfix.
I know the McASP introduced this and it is annoying. Let's not repeat it again...

I'm going to correct it, thanks.

+Texas Instruments DaVinci McBSP module
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This binding describes the "Multi-channel Buffered Serial Port" (McBSP)
+audio interface found in some TI DaVinci processors like e.g. the DA850,
+DM6446, DA355.
Given that the driver is actually a driver for daVinci ASP and it completely
ignores registers introduced when the IP is renamed from ASP to McBSP, should
we say something about this? That the ASP is compatible or subset of McBSP
(w/o the multichannel support) and these bindings could be used for ASP, with
adding new compatible?
Or just leave that out and bother with it when we have such a device booting
with DT?
It would be nice to mention both but if there is only one compatible string then it doesn't make much sense. And saying "you can add your own compatible string" is the binding not the right place to say this.
But could we add another compatible string for the older ASP?
