Linux currently does not support PCIe endpoints. Do you plan to submit
a driver for that as well?

You are setting up DMA_SLAVE here but do not use the DT binding
for slave DMA. Can your driver handle slave DMA? If it can,
you should use the appropriate binding, if not then don't
set DMA_SLAVE here.

The registers are not listed in the 'reg' property. Why is that?

You should probably use devm_request_mem_region or devm_ioremap_resource
here to ensure manage the mmio range.

from binding, these two register ranges look like they are part of
another device. Which device is that:

+                       reg = < 0x0 0x1f2b0154 0x0 0xc
+                               0x0 0x1f2b0058 0x0 0x8>;

Is this some kind of syscon node that contains all sorts of
registers munged together, or is this the same register set that
is used for the channels?

In the former case, better use a syscon reference instead of 'reg'
and use syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle to get the regmap, in the
second case, just list the entire registers.

Just use a 64-bit dma-mask all the time, and fall back to a 32-bit
mask if that doesn't work, the dma mask is completely independent
of the word size of the CPU.

You also have to make sure that the parent of the device contains
a proper dma-ranges property that allows a 64-bit mask. We currently
have a bug in the kernel that makes dma_set_mask_and_coherent
always succeed, and we need to fix that so it fails if you have
a 64-bit dma capable device on a 32-bit wide bus.

This is a rather generic compatible string. Is this device present
in identical form on all xgene variants?

As xgene is a marketing name and you have now announce the speciifc
model numbers, better use the first model that has this hardware.
