Well, an address and length describes a "range", but if it is not 
commonly used term, there is no need to use it here either.

The both contain the same information, but your version is certainly 
easier to read. I'll take it. Thanks!

The need for two different register properties does not come from McASP 
IP, but from SoC design. On AM33XX the McASP registers are mapped for 
MPU through L4 bus, which is no accessible to the DMA controller. The 
McASP data port registers are mapped trough L3 buss to a different 
address for DMA controller. Maybe the second register property could be 
called to "dat" instead of "dma" since only data port registers are 
mapped trough that address.

No you have not. A later patch in this set make the interrupt property 
optional and adds "tx" and "rx" interrupt-names:

That property selects whether McASP is working in I2S mode or in 
Integrated Digital audio interface Transmitter (DIT) mode for S/PDIF, 
IEC60958-1, AES-3 formats.

0 and 1. I'll document those. Thanks.

I am not absolutely sure here. I'll check the details and try to come up 
with a better description.

Talking about num-serializer and serial-dir property here...

The McASP can have up to 16 serializers for selecting data pin usage. 
The numbers have been grouped into 4x4 matrix only for better 
readability. BTW, the num-serializers property is redundant and it will 
be removed in the next version of the patch series.

I removed those from the actual dts file, but forgot to do so here. I'll 
fix that. Thanks!

As far as I understand the choice is to use either McASP internal clock 
or codec provided clock. The selection is made by the machine/platform 
driver by calling snd_soc_dai_set_fmt() and applying the required bits 
in SND_SOC_DAIFMT_MASTER_MASK. I guess the choice may not always be HW 
specific.

I guess that is really up to machine/platform driver that configures dapm.

That is true, but since driver does not support it and there is no 
example of GPIO usage, no guess work has been done about the required DT 
properties.
