Commit Message

The AXI SPI Engine has support for hardware offloading capabilities.
This includes a connection to a DMA controller for streaming RX data
and a trigger input for starting execution of the SPI message programmed
in the offload.

Each SPI Engine may have up to 1 offload. The spec actually says that
it could support up to 32, so we are using an index number in the
dma-names (e.g. offload0-rx) to allow for this possibility in the
future.

v5 changes:
* Also document offload0-tx DMA names since the hardware can support
  that now.
* Limit the number of offloads to 1 for now since it would require
  significant hardware changes to actually support more than that.

v4 changes:
* Dropped #spi-offload-cells property.
* Changed subject line.

v3 changes:
* Added #spi-offload-cells property.
* Added properties for triggers and RX data stream connected to DMA.

v2 changes:
* This is basically a new patch. It partially replaces "dt-bindings:
  iio: offload: add binding for PWM/DMA triggered buffer".
* The controller no longer has an offloads object node and the
  spi-offloads property is now a standard SPI peripheral property.

How can you have an index when you only allow 1 entry (other than 0 of 
course)?

With my other comments implemented, this should be dropped.

Do you expect an offload1 or something?

Same reason as below, but we can drop that part of the description for now.

Yes, I tried to make this clear in the commit message. The hardware
is designed to have up to 32 offload instances, but in practice
there can only be 1 for now. So I included the 0 here to make it
future-proof in case that changes in the future.
