+Marvell PXA SSP CPU DAI bindings

+Required properties:
+
+	compatible	Must be "mrvl,pxa-ssp-dai"
+	port		A phandle reference to a PXA ssp upstream device
+
+Example:
+
+	/* upstream device */
+
+	ssp0: ssp@41000000 {
+		compatible = "mrvl,pxa3xx-ssp";
+		reg = <0x41000000 0x40>;
+		interrupts = <24>;
+		clock-names = "pxa27x-ssp.0";
+		dmas = <&dma 13
+			&dma 14>;
+		dma-names = "rx", "tx";
+	};
+
+	/* DAI as user */
+
+	ssp_dai0: ssp_dai@0 {
+		compatible = "mrvl,pxa-ssp-dai";
+		port = <&ssp0>;
+	};
