[PATCH 0/1] Prefetch support for DMA transfer

[Samu Onkalo]

Add support for Prefetech mode in destination synchronized DMA transfer.
This enables DMA controller to fetch data from memory in advance.
When the destination HW block requests new data block, it can be send out
faster compared to read from memory. This may prevent stalls in target
HW block.

[PATCH 1/1] omap: dma: Support for prefetch in destination synchronized transfer

[Samu Onkalo]

Omap DMA controller can prefetch data in advance in case of
destination synchronized data transfer. This may increase
performance when target HW block doesn't have fifo.
Data is waiting for transfer request in DMA fifo instead of read from memory.
