Yeah, it is intentional from my part. In dra7xx family we actually have two DMA controllers: sDMA and eDMA. They both have identical crossbar up front but you can not choose the DMA request to be routed to either eDMA or sDMA. They are always routed to both and in the crossbar you select which signal goes to which DMA request of the given controller. At the moment I was not aware of different designs (current and future), but it might be possible that a design you described might surface at some point. For sure, the list will complicate things quite a bit it might require different API and callbacks at the end. I need to think about this how it is going to work best. > It might also be better to name this as 'dma-controllers' or 'dma-masters', > as it is not entirely obvious (without referencing the binding document) > whether a dma device refers to the slave or the master. I think the 'dma-masters' sounds much better.
