+* Freescale MPC512x and MPC8308 DMA Controller
+
+The DMA controller in Freescale MPC512x and MPC8308 SoCs can move
+blocks of memory contents between memory and peripherals or
+from memory to memory.
+
+Refer to "Generic DMA Controller and DMA request bindings" in
+the dma/dma.txt file for a more detailed description of binding.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be "fsl,mpc5121-dma" or "fsl,mpc8308-dma";
+- reg: should contain the DMA controller registers location and length;
+- interrupt for the DMA controller: syntax of interrupt client node
+ is described in interrupt-controller/interrupts.txt file.
+- #dma-cells: the length of the DMA specifier, must be <1>.
+ Each channel of this DMA controller has a peripheral request line,
+ the assignment is fixed in hardware. This one cell
+ in dmas property of a client device represents the channel number.
+
+Example:
+
+ dma0: dma@14000 {
+ compatible = "fsl,mpc5121-dma";
+ reg = <0x14000 0x1800>;
+ interrupts = <65 0x8>;
+ #dma-cells = <1>;
+ };
+
+DMA clients must use the format described in dma/dma.txt file.
