[PATCH 1/2] mmc: atmel-mci: DMA can be used with other controller

[ludovic.desroches@atmel.com (ludovic.desroches)]

Hi Hein,

Thanks for your investigation about the MCI issue with AVR chips.

I think you should add more details about the issue:
Even if the IP version is lower than v3xx and doesn't have the DMA
configuration register, DMA transfers can be used with a different
controller than the Atmel AHB DMA one. For instance, some AVR chips use 
the Synopsys DesignWare AHB DMA controller.

I have tested this patch on at91sam9m10g45, at91sam9g10 and at91sam9261. 
For chips without MCI support for Atmel AHB DMA, removing the 
host->caps.has_dma test involves to use pdata->dma_slave with more 
caution to avoid some NULL pointer dereferences
