This assumes that there is a 1:1 mapping between channels and request lines,
which is unusual, but I assume it's correct for the hardware.

Here we rely on the fact that all device trees including this dma engine
have a correct representation of the device, which breaks backwards
compatibility with old device trees, which don't yet follow the binding
or don't need to because they only use memory-to-memory channels.

You can easily make it backwards compatible by making the above a
non-fatal error and just continuing here even if of_dma_controller_register
failed. If compatiblity is not a concern, the above is good.

The main thing missing is a binding file in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/dma/mpc512x-dma.txt
