SSP stands for Serial Synchronous Protocol and has nothing to do with
UART, also known as USART, where 'A' stands for Asynchronous.

Move the SSP bindings to where it belongs.

Hmm... okay. Then it's question to DT people. Consider this as a report.
Because UART (aka serial) is definitely not the place for SPI/SSP bindings
either.

Ah, well that detail was missed.

Looks like all that is needed is adding the compatible strings and 
'dmas' property to spi/marvell,mmp2-ssp.yaml. The examples in the old 
binding have other stuff, but looks like that's garbage.

I'm not an expert in DT, anybody to join them in a nicest possible way?
