Would it not be better if the bounce buffer is something available
for all MMCI variants and not restricted to the STM32 DMA add-on?

What I'm thinking is that this is a problem with the MMCI hardware
rather than with the DMA hardware, so the problem kind of gets
fixed in the wrong place if the bounce buffer is in the DMA add-on
code.

Maybe this is how you fixed it in later patches, I'll take a look.

Linus Walleij
