Peter Ujfalusi 1be5336bc7 dmaengine: edma: New device tree binding
With the old binding and driver architecture we had many issues:
No way to assign eDMA channels to event queues, thus not able to tune the
system by moving specific DMA channels to low/high priority servicing. We
moved the cyclic channels to high priority within the code, but that was
just a workaround to this issue.
Memcopy was fundamentally broken: even if the driver scanned the DT/devices
in the booted system for direct DMA users (which is not effective when the
events are going through a crossbar) and created a map of 'used' channels,
this information was not really usable. Since via dmaengien API the eDMA
driver will be called with _some_ channel number, we would try to request
this channel when any channel is requested for memcpy. By luck we got
channel which is not used by any device most of the time so things worked,
but if a device would have been using the given channel, but not requested
it, the memcpy channel would have been waiting for HW event.
The old code had the am33xx/am43xx DMA event router handling embedded. This
should have been done in a separate driver since it is not part of the
actual eDMA IP.
There were no way to 'lock' PaRAM slots to be used by the DSP for example
when booting with DT.
In DT boot the edma node used more than one hwmod which is not a good
practice and the kernel prints warning because of this.

With the new bindings and the changes in the driver we can:
- No regression with Legacy binding and non DT boot
- DMA channels can be assigned to any TC (to set priority)
- PaRAM slots can be reserved for other cores to use
- Dynamic power management for CC and TCs, if only TC0 is used all other TC
  can be powered down for example

Texas Instruments eDMA
The eDMA3 consists of two components: Channel controller (CC) and Transfer
Controller(s) (TC). The CC is the main entry for DMA users since it is
responsible for the DMA channel handling, while the TCs are responsible to
execute the actual DMA tansfer.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
eDMA3 Channel Controller
Required properties:
- compatible: "ti,edma3-tpcc" for the channel controller(s)
- #dma-cells: Should be set to <2>. The first number is the DMA request
number and the second is the TC the channel is serviced on.
- reg: Memory map of eDMA CC
- reg-names: "edma3_cc"
- interrupts: Interrupt lines for CCINT, MPERR and CCERRINT.
- interrupt-names: "edma3_ccint", "emda3_mperr" and "edma3_ccerrint"
- ti,tptcs: List of TPTCs associated with the eDMA in the following form:
<&tptc_phandle TC_priority_number>. The highest priority is 0.
Optional properties:
- ti,hwmods: Name of the hwmods associated to the eDMA CC
- ti,edma-memcpy-channels: List of channels allocated to be used for memcpy, iow
these channels will be SW triggered channels. The list must
contain 16 bits numbers, see example.
- ti,edma-reserved-slot-ranges: PaRAM slot ranges which should not be used by
the driver, they are allocated to be used by for example the
DSP. See example.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
eDMA3 Transfer Controller
Required properties:
- compatible: "ti,edma3-tptc" for the transfer controller(s)
- reg: Memory map of eDMA TC
- interrupts: Interrupt number for TCerrint.
Optional properties:
- ti,hwmods: Name of the hwmods associated to the given eDMA TC
- interrupt-names: "edma3_tcerrint"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DEPRECATED binding, new DTS files must use the ti,edma3-tpcc/ti,edma3-tptc
binding.
Required properties:
- compatible : "ti,edma3"
- #dma-cells: Should be set to <1>
Clients should use a single channel number per DMA request.
- reg: Memory map for accessing module
- interrupt-parent: Interrupt controller the interrupt is routed through
- interrupts: Exactly 3 interrupts need to be specified in the order:
1. Transfer completion interrupt.
2. Memory protection interrupt.
3. Error interrupt.
Optional properties:
- ti,hwmods: Name of the hwmods associated to the EDMA
- ti,edma-xbar-event-map: Crossbar event to channel map
Deprecated properties:
Listed here in case one wants to boot an old kernel with new DTB. These
properties might need to be added to the new DTS files.
