Should include "fsl,elo3-dma".  There's nothing different about elo3  
versus elo/eloplus regarding whether fsl,CHIP-dma is allowed.  I'd just  
drop the references to fsl,CHIP-dma throughout the binding, and phrase  
the compatible description as "must include" rather than "must be" so  
that additional strings are allowed.
