Rework the maple bus driver to support block reads and writes, while
also cleaning up the code and aiming for a consistent namespace for
functions.

Changes to the maple.h header file to support block reads and writes.

that looks wonky ... you do the alloc first and then check the len ?

should be a KERN_NOTICE or worse ... KERN_INFO doesnt seem appropriate

same here ... KERN_INFO shouldnt be used in error handlers

do you really need to set every value ?  i would only bother when there's a 
discontinuity ...

Please do not abuse P2SEGADDR in this fashion. No new code should be
using P2SEGADDR anyways. maple is particularly abusive in this case since
it bounces back and forth between P2SEGADDR and PHYSADDR to try and
ignore the fact cache flushing has to be handled.

You may also wish to consider ioremap/ioremap_nocache().

printk() is pretty useless throughout all of this code, you have a struct
device, use it. dev_info()/dev_err()/etc/etc. with &mdev->dev will also
give you some meaningful indicator of which device in particular is
having issues.

All of these beyond the waitqueue initialization are superfluous, given
that you are kzalloc()'ing mdev in the first place.

This is not an improvement. There are many places throughout this code
where you have a perfectly usable errno value handed back to you that you
simply ignore in favour of a fixed error value. If you have an indicator
of what went wrong, it helps to pass that along in the error case,
especially if you are trying to debug an error.

&&'s at the end of the first line.

I find it rather entertaining that you have no qualms about using
ridiculously long device and driver names even with fancy caps yet can't
bring yourself to insert an _ in your function pointer names.

Can I just use dma_cache_sync before each dma run and then use the P1
address space?

After the dma run I mean - the cache is flushed before the run - but not
after.
