[PATCH 0/3] mmc: xenon-sdhci: Try to fix 2G address limitation on AC5 SoC

[Vadym Kochan <vadym.kochan@plvision.eu>]

There is a limitation on AC5 SoC that Xenon SDHC can address only
first 2GB of memory. Turning to the SDMA mode to use the bounce_buffer
causes ext_csd recognition to fail on init.

Using of swiotlb=force also does not help as it is allocated at the
end of the memory.

So it was decided to use reserved-memory as a bounce buffer in case
if the board has more than 2G of memory, or turn on the PIO
mode if such memory region does not exist in the device-tree.
There is a custom property which is used to attach bounce memory region
to the device on demand (only if more 2G memory is used). This is a software
property only so it was not described in the dt-bindings.

Separate DTSI is added to reserve memory only for boards with eMMC cards.

It was tested that this approach is 1.5 times faster than PIO.
