Documentation: dmaengine: Update the documentation

Now that we have splitted device_control and removed device_slave_caps in favor
of a few dma_device variables, update the documentation accordingly.

-   * device_control
-     - Used by client drivers to control and configure the channel it
-       has a handle on.
-     - Called with a command and an argument
-       + The command is one of the values listed by the enum
-         dma_ctrl_cmd. The valid commands are:
-         + DMA_PAUSE
-           + Pauses a transfer on the channel
-           + This command should operate synchronously on the channel,
-             pausing right away the work of the given channel
-         + DMA_RESUME
-           + Restarts a transfer on the channel
-           + This command should operate synchronously on the channel,
-             resuming right away the work of the given channel
-         + DMA_TERMINATE_ALL
-           + Aborts all the pending and ongoing transfers on the
-             channel
-           + This command should operate synchronously on the channel,
-             terminating right away all the channels
-         + DMA_SLAVE_CONFIG
-           + Reconfigures the channel with passed configuration
-           + This command should NOT perform synchronously, or on any
-             currently queued transfers, but only on subsequent ones
-           + In this case, the function will receive a
-             dma_slave_config structure pointer as an argument, that
-             will detail which configuration to use.
-           + Even though that structure contains a direction field,
-             this field is deprecated in favor of the direction
-             argument given to the prep_* functions
-         + FSLDMA_EXTERNAL_START
-           + TODO: Why does that even exist?
-       + The argument is an opaque unsigned long. This actually is a
-         pointer to a struct dma_slave_config that should be used only
-         in the DMA_SLAVE_CONFIG.
-
-  * device_slave_caps
-    - Called through the framework by client drivers in order to have
-      an idea of what are the properties of the channel allocated to
-      them.
-    - Such properties are the buswidth, available directions, etc.
-    - Required for every generic layer doing DMA transfers, such as
-      ASoC.
