dmaengine: add helper function to request a slave DMA channel

Currently slave DMA channels are requested by calling dma_request_channel()
and requires DMA clients to pass various filter parameters to obtain the
appropriate channel.

With device-tree being used by architectures such as arm and the addition of
device-tree helper functions to extract the relevant DMA client information
from device-tree, add a new function to request a slave DMA channel using
device-tree. This function is currently a simple wrapper that calls the
device-tree of_dma_request_slave_channel() function.

of: Add generic device tree DMA helpers

This is based upon the work by Benoit Cousson [1] and Nicolas Ferre [2]
to add some basic helpers to retrieve a DMA controller device_node and the
DMA request/channel information.

Aim of DMA helpers
- The purpose of device-tree is to describe the capabilites of the hardware.
  Thinking about DMA controllers purely from the context of the hardware to
  begin with, we can describe a device in terms of a DMA controller as
  follows ...
  	1. Number of DMA controllers
	2. Number of channels (maybe physical or logical)
	3. Mapping of DMA requests signals to DMA controller
	4. Number of DMA interrupts
	5. Mapping of DMA interrupts to channels
- With the above in mind the aim of the DT DMA helper functions is to extract
  the above information from the DT and provide to the appropriate driver.
  However, due to the vast number of DMA controllers and not all are using a
  common driver (such as DMA Engine) it has been seen that this is not a
  trivial task. In previous discussions on this topic the following concerns
  have been raised ...
	1. How does the binding support devices with multiple DMA controllers?
  	2. How to support both legacy DMA controllers not using DMA Engine as
	   well as those that support DMA Engine.
	3. When using with DMA Engine how do we support the various
	   implementations where the opaque filter function parameter differs
	   between implementations?
	4. How do we handle DMA channels that are identified with a string
	   versus a integer?
- Hence the design of the DMA helpers has to accomodate the above or align on
  an agreement what can be or should be supported.

Design of DMA helpers

1. Registering DMA controllers

   In the case of DMA controllers that are using DMA Engine, requesting a
   channel is performed by calling the following function.

	struct dma_chan *dma_request_channel(dma_cap_mask_t mask,
			dma_filter_fn filter_fn,
			void *filter_param);

   The mask variable is used to match a type of the device controller in a list
   of controllers. The filter_fn and filter_param are used to identify the
   required dma channel and return a handle to the dma channel of type dma_chan.

   From the examples I have seen, the mask and filter_fn are constant
   for a given DMA controller and therefore, we can specify these as controller
   specific data when registering the DMA controller with the device-tree DMA
   helpers.

   The filter_param variable is of an unknown type and is typically specific
   to the DMA engine implementation for a given DMA controller. To allow some
   flexibility in the type and formating of this filter_param we employ an
   xlate to translate the device-tree binding information into the appropriate
   format. The xlate function used for a DMA controller can also be specified
   when registering the DMA controller with the device-tree DMA helpers.

   Based upon the above, a function for registering the DMA controller with the
   DMA helpers now looks like the below. The data variable is used to pass a
   pointer to DMA controller specific data used by the xlate function.

	int of_dma_controller_register(struct device_node *np,
		struct dma_chan *(*of_dma_xlate)
		(struct of_phandle_args *, struct of_dma *),
		void *data)

   For example, in the case where DMA engine is used, we define the following
   structure (that stores the DMA engine capability mask and filter function)
   and pass this to the data variable in the above function.

	struct of_dma_filter_info {
		dma_cap_mask_t  dma_cap;
		dma_filter_fn   filter_fn;
	};

2. Representing and requesting channel information

   Please see the dma binding documentation included in this patch for a
   description of how DMA controllers and client information should be
   represented with device-tree. For more information on how this binding
   came about please see [3]. In addition to this, feedback received from
   the Linux kernel summit showed a consensus (among those who attended) to
   use a name to identify DMA client information [4].

   A DMA channel can be requested by calling the following function, where name
   is a required parameter used for identifying a DMA channel. This function
   has been designed to return a structure of type dma_chan to work with the
   DMA engine driver. Note that if DMA engine is used then drivers should be
   using the DMA engine API dma_request_slave_channel() (implemented in part 2
   of this series, "dmaengine: add helper function to request a slave DMA
   channel") which will in turn call the below function if device-tree is
   present. The aim being to have a common DMA engine interface regardless of
   whether device tree is being used.

	struct dma_chan *of_dma_request_slave_channel(struct device_node *np,
						      char *name)

3. Supporting legacy devices not using DMA Engine

   These devices present a problem, as there may not be a uniform way to easily
   support them with regard to device tree. Ideally, these should be migrated
   to DMA engine. However, if this is not possible, then they should still be
   able to use this binding, the only constaint imposed by this implementation
   is that when requesting a DMA channel via of_dma_request_slave_channel(), it
   will return a type of dma_chan.

This implementation has been tested on OMAP4430 using the kernel v3.6-rc5. I
have validated that MMC is working on the PANDA board with this implementation.
My development branch for testing on OMAP can be found here [5].

v6: - minor corrections in DMA binding documentation
v5: - minor update to binding documentation
    - added loop to exhaustively search for a slave channel in the case where
      there could be alternative channels available
v4: - revert the removal of xlate function from v3
    - update the proposed binding format and APIs based upon discussions [3]
v3: - avoid passing an xlate function and instead pass DMA engine parameters
    - define number of dma channels and requests in dma-controller node
v2: - remove of_dma_to_resource API
    - make property #dma-cells required (no fallback anymore)
    - another check in of_dma_xlate_onenumbercell() function

of: dma: fix potential deadlock when requesting a slave channel

In the latest version of the OF dma handlers I added support (rather hastily)
to exhaustively search for an available dma slave channel, for the use-case
where we have alternative slave channels that can be used. In the current
implementation a deadlock scenario can occur causing the CPU to loop forever.
The scenario is as follows ...

1. There are alternative channels avaialble
2. The first channel that is found by calling of_dma_find_channel() is not
   available and so the call to the xlate function returns NULL. In this case
   we will call of_dma_find_channel() again but we will return the same channel
   that we found the first time and hence, again the xlate will return NULL and
   we will loop here forever.

Fix this potential deadlock by just using a single for-loop and not a for-loop
nested in a do-while loop. This change also replaces the function
of_dma_find_channel() with of_dma_match_channel() which performs a simple check
to see if a DMA channel matches the name specified.

I have tested this implementation on an OMAP4 panda board by adding a dummy
DMA specifier, that will cause the xlate function to return NULL, to the
beginning of a list of DMA specifiers for a DMA client.

of: dma: fix protection of DMA controller data stored by DMA helpers

In the current implementation of the OF DMA helpers, read-copy-update (RCU)
linked lists are being used for storing and accessing the DMA controller data.
This part of implementation is based upon V2 of the DMA helpers by Nicolas [1].
During a recent review of RCU, it became apparent that the code is missing the
required rcu_read_lock()/unlock() calls as well as synchronisation calls before
freeing any memory protected by RCU.

Having looked into adding the appropriate RCU calls to protect the DMA data it
became apparent that with the current DMA helper implementation, using RCU is
not as attractive as it may have been before. The main reasons being that ...

1. We need to protect the DMA data around calls to the xlate function.
2. The of_dma_simple_xlate() function calls the DMA engine function
   dma_request_channel() which employs a mutex and so could sleep.
3. The RCU read-side critical sections must not sleep and so we cannot hold
   an RCU read lock around the xlate function.

Therefore, instead of using RCU, an alternative for this use-case is to employ
a simple spinlock inconjunction with a usage count variable to keep track of
how many current users of the DMA data structure there are. With this
implementation, the DMA data cannot be freed until all current users of the
DMA data are finished.

This patch is based upon the DMA helpers fix for potential deadlock [2].
