I'm sponsoring this case as a self review case for myself. The only 
change is to update the NIU binding so that the tag type for the 
tx-dma-channels and rx-dma-channels property is PROP_DATA instead of 
PROP_VAL.

The textual description of the properties describes them as an array of 
numbers, and they have been implemented as PROP_DATA type properties, so 
there are no code or interface changes necessary.

The following shows the diffs between the two versions of the binding, 
which has been updated at it's official location here:
