Well, I have to rewrite that to make it clearer.
The thing is:
with "atmel,at91rm9200-ssc" the SSC doesn't work with DMA.
with "atmel,at91sam9g45-ssc", the SSC work ONLY with DMA.

So the dmas/dma-names properties are only required for g45-ssc, and
useless for rm9200-ssc

Maybe the best will be to write a paragraph for g45-ssc and another
for rm9200-ssc, even if there's some identical lines between them.


Thanks !

Richard.
