The bottom line of my suggestion is only to add the dma register 
location
to reg-property, since that info is needed in the mcasp node also in the
future dmaengine_pcm-implementation.

The driver implementation would still remain pretty much the same. The 
McASP
code would - instead of adding new properties to DT - use sensible 
hard-coded
default event queue selection (= dma priority selection) for now.
