Hi Tim,
SAMA5D2 has 2 XDMA controllers and the definition of peripherals channel is
also different with SAMA5D3 and SAMA5D4.
I will raise a pull request of adding SAMA5D2 XDMA definition to NuttX.
But I didn't test the XDMA driver on any SAMA5Dx platform.

I run NuttX on SAMA5D3 and SAMA5D2, the maxtouch driver and LCD driver were
OK.
Here is a blog introducing running NuttX graphics on SAMA5D3 Xplained with
LCD display driver.
