Hi Frank

Thanks for the review, and sorry for the delay in coming back to this.

This is not platform drvdata.

The code was converting from the generic DMA transfer direction enum
into the hardware specific bitmask, and then looking at that for
whether it was using an address increment or not.
It's more readable, and easier to add in the newer variant of the
hardware, if we check the generic transfer direction.

I've reworded it for V2 as

"The criteria for whether an address increment is required is based
solely on the DMA transfer direction. The driver was converting from
direction into the hardware's "info" bitmask and using that, which
is therefore dependent on the hardware variant.

Change to using the DMA transfer direction via helper functions
to remove this hardware specific dependency."

Hopefully makes the situation clearer.

No, as described above, it's not a bug fix.
