[ Upstream commit e8ee6c8cb61b676f1a2d6b942329e98224bd8ee9 ] DW DMA IP-core provides a way to synthesize the DMA controller with channels having different parameters like maximum burst-length, multi-block support, maximum data width, etc. Those parameters both explicitly and implicitly affect the channels performance. Since DMA slave devices might be very demanding to the DMA performance, let's provide a functionality for the slaves to be assigned with DW DMA channels, which performance according to the platform engineer fulfill their requirements. After this patch is applied it can be done by passing the mask of suitable DMA-channels either directly in the dw_dma_slave structure instance or as a fifth cell of the DMA DT-property. If mask is zero or not provided, then there is no limitation on the channels allocation. For instance Baikal-T1 SoC is equipped with a DW DMAC engine, which first two channels are synthesized with max burst length of 16, while the rest of the channels have been created with max-burst-len=4. It would seem that the first two channels must be faster than the others and should be more preferable for the time-critical DMA slave devices. In practice it turned out that the situation is quite the opposite. The channels with max-burst-len=4 demonstrated a better performance than the channels with max-burst-len=16 even when they both had been initialized with the same settings. The performance drop of the first two DMA-channels made them unsuitable for the DW APB SSI slave device. No matter what settings they are configured with, full-duplex SPI transfers occasionally experience the Rx FIFO overflow. It means that the DMA-engine doesn't keep up with incoming data pace even though the SPI-bus is enabled with speed of 25MHz while the DW DMA controller is clocked with 50MHz signal. There is no such problem has been noticed for the channels synthesized with max-burst-len=4.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
