You can drop 'items' for a single item.

You need to say what each entry is:

items:
- description: ...
- description: ...

Add:

additionalProperties: false

Not documented. You need at least 'dma-channels: true' to indicate
you're using this. But you should be able to have some constraints such
as 'maximum: 16'.
