ARM: mmci: add dmaengine-based DMA support
Based on a patch from Linus Walleij.
Add dmaengine based support for DMA to the MMCI driver, using the
Primecell DMA engine interface. The changes over Linus' driver are:
- rename txsize_threshold to dmasize_threshold, as this reflects the
purpose more.
- use 'mmci_dma_' as the function prefix rather than 'dma_mmci_'.
- clean up requesting of dma channels.
- don't release a single channel twice when it's shared between tx and rx.
- get rid of 'dma_enable' bool - instead check whether the channel is NULL.
- detect incomplete DMA at the end of a transfer. Some DMA controllers
(eg, PL08x) are unable to be configured for scatter DMA and also listen
to all four DMA request signals [BREQ,SREQ,LBREQ,LSREQ] from the MMCI.
They can do one or other but not both. As MMCI uses LBREQ/LSREQ for the
final burst/words, PL08x does not transfer the last few words.
- map and unmap DMA buffers using the DMA engine struct device, not the
MMCI struct device - the DMA engine is doing the DMA transfer, not us.
- avoid double-unmapping of the DMA buffers on MMCI data errors.
- don't check for negative values from the dmaengine tx submission
function - Dan says this must never fail.
- use new dmaengine helper functions rather than using the ugly function
pointers directly.
- allow DMA code to be fully optimized away using dma_inprogress() which
is defined to constant 0 if DMA engine support is disabled.
- request maximum segment size from the DMA engine struct device and
set this appropriately.
- removed checking of buffer alignment - the DMA engine should deal with
its own restrictions on buffer alignment, not the individual DMA engine
users.
- removed setting DMAREQCTL - this confuses some DMA controllers as it
causes LBREQ to be asserted for the last seven transfers, rather than
six SREQ and one LSREQ.
- removed burst setting - the DMA controller should not burst past the
transfer size required to complete the DMA operation.
