[PATCH 1/2] dmaengine i.MX SDMA: initialize on module_init

[Sascha Hauer]

The firmware framework gets initialized during fs_initcall time, so
we are not allowed to call request_firmware earlier.

[PATCH 2/2] dmaengine i.MX SDMA: protect channel0

[Sascha Hauer]

Channel 0 of the SDMA engine is a shared resource used by the
other channels, thus we have to protect it with a mutex.

This one is not making sense to me...

In sdma_load_script() what data structure are we protecting at single
threaded init time prior to registering channels?

This sdma_load_context() is called from various ->prep() contexts.
What guarantees are there that we can sleep in these contexts?  At
least ->prep_memcpy() might be called in a atomic context.  I have
been assuming the same for all prep routines across archs.

At the moment the lock in sdma_load_script is not needed, but I have a
patch in the queue using request_firmware_nowait instead of
request_firmware, so the firmware might come in after initialization
(The SDMA does not really depend on the firmware, it can just offer more
features when it is available)

Currently it is only called from non interrupt context.

Fact is that we need some kind of locking because channel 0 is used by
the other channels. I just made a check and it shows running channel 0
only takes about 6us, so a spinlock might be a better weapon here.

So forget this patch for now and I'll send an updated one using a
spinlock (and no completion interrupt for channel 0).

Sascha
