+* Atmel HW cryptographic accelerators
+
+These are the HW cryptographic accelerators found on some Atmel products.
+
+* Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : Should be "atmel,at91sam9g46-aes".
+- reg: Should contain AES registers location and length.
+- interrupts: Should contain the IRQ line for the AES.
+- dmas: List of two DMA specifiers as described in
+        atmel-dma.txt and dma.txt files.
+- dma-names: Contains one identifier string for each DMA specifier
+             in the dmas property.
+
+Example:
+aes@f8038000 {
+	compatible = "atmel,at91sam9g46-aes";
+	reg = <0xf8038000 0x100>;
+	interrupts = <43 4 0>;
+	dmas = <&dma1 2 18>,
+	       <&dma1 2 19>;
+	dma-names = "tx", "rx";
