Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] dw_dmac: repair driver for use with AVR32 (AP7000)
Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2012 01:14:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <503F9F72.9020301@yahoo.es> (raw)

After some recent changes to dw_dmac, the driver got broken
for the AVR32 platform for two reasons:

The accessors to i/o memory had become little-endian.
The maximum transfer width on the memory side was increased
from 32 to 64 bits. This led to undefined behavior on the
avr32 platform.

These patches repair the driver by:
1. making the endianness configurable through Kconfig,
for AVR32 it will become big-endian
2. making the maximum memory transfer width configurable
It can be set in the code within arch

For non-avr32 (ARM) platforms, nothing has to be changed.

Thanks to all for reviewing
