Alexandre TORGUE 48863ce594 stmmac: add DMA support for GMAC 4.xx
DMA behavior is linked to descriptor management:

-descriptor mechanism (Tx for example, but it is exactly the same for RX):
-useful registers:
-DMA_CH#_TxDesc_Ring_Len: length of transmit descriptor ring
-DMA_CH#_TxDesc_List_Address: start address of the ring
	-DMA_CH#_TxDesc_Tail_Pointer: address of the last
					      descriptor to send + 1.
	-DMA_CH#_TxDesc_Current_App_TxDesc: address of the current
						    descriptor

-The descriptor Tail Pointer register contains the pointer to the
 descriptor address (N). The base address and the current
 descriptor decide the address of the current descriptor that the
 DMA can process. The descriptors up to one location less than the
 one indicated by the descriptor tail pointer (N-1) are owned by
 the DMA. The DMA continues to process the descriptors until the
 following condition occurs:
 "current descriptor pointer == Descriptor Tail pointer"

Then the DMA goes into suspend mode. The application must perform
a write to descriptor tail pointer register and update the tail
pointer to have the following condition and to start a new transfer:
"current descriptor pointer < Descriptor tail pointer"

The DMA automatically wraps around the base address when the end
of ring is reached.

Up to 8 DMA could be use but currently we only use one (channel0)
