Commit d0fc2eaaf4c56a95f5ed29b6bfb609e19714fc16 "powerpc/fsl: Refactor
device bindings" split out a number of device bindings from
booting-without-of.txt into separate files.  Having them all in one file
was a frequent source of merge conflicts.

However, in the next merge, 49997d75152b3d23c53b0fa730599f2f74c92c65, there
was another conflict.  Some of the bindings removed from
booting-without-of.txt were mistakenly added back in and the copies in
dts-bindings were kept as well.

This patch re-removes "Freescale Display Interface" and "Freescale on board
FPGA" and fixes the table of contents.

We don't want to encourage the bogus device_type usage.

The device type isn't used in the code, so we can simply remove it from
the documentation and dts files.

Boards should specify proper compatible entries instead.

<title>powerpc: document the "fsl,ssi-dma-channel" compatible property</title>

The "fsl,ssi-dma-channel" compatible property is used to specify a DMA channel
on the Freescale Elo DMA controller that should be used exclusively by the
Freescale SSI audio controller.  When a property is marked as such, the Elo
DMA driver will ignore it, and so it will be available for the sound drivers.

<title>powerpc: 83xx: pci: Remove need for get_immrbase from mpc83xx_add_bridge.</title>

<content type='text'>
Modify mpc83xx_add_bridge to get config space register base address from
the device tree instead of immr + hardcoded offset.

83xx pci nodes have this change:
    register properties now contain two address length tuples:
	First is the pci bridge register base, this has always been there.
	Second is the config base, this is new.

This is documented in dts-bindings/fsl/83xx-512x-pci.txt

The changes accomplish these things:
    mpc83xx_add_bridge no longer needs to call get_immrbase
    it uses hard coded addresses if the second register value is missing

Add the fsl,playback-dma and fsl,capture-dma properties to the Freescale
MPC8610 HPCD device tree.  These properties connect the SSI nodes to the
DMA nodes for the DMA channels that the SSI should use.  Also update the
ssi.txt documentation.

These properties will be needed when the ASoC V2 version of the Freescale
MPC8610 device drivers are merged into the mainline.
