Generic dma controller on Rockchips' platform cannot support
DMAFLUSHP instruction which make dma to flush the req of non-aligned
or non-multiple of what we need. That will cause an unrecoverable
dma bus error. The saftest way is to set dma max burst to 1.

If this is a quirk of the DMA controller why is it being fixed with a
property specific to the SPI controller?  Can't the DMA controller just
override the burst size?

This is misspelt.

Cool...that's a good question. Actually DMA controller can't do that 
since block peripheral controller(e.g sd/emmc, they always access data 
by block-512Bytes.) can't meet the case. So It's hard for dma controller 
know who is the caller, and what should be done.

The only thing dma controller can do is avoid to execute DMAFLUSHP on 
its own. But how about peripheral controller trigger non-multiple 
access? So that's what I mentioned on covery letter that we should do 
"broken things" for both dma controller and some peripherals.

Woops, sorry for the bit. Thanks, Mark.

You could take a guess based on request size, but that's going to be a
bit error prone I imagine.

The other thing it could do is provide the information out via some
internal Linux API which the drivers could query instead of directly
having a DT property in each client driver.  That way at least the DT
only needs the quirk in one place even if the clients need to handle it
individually.

yes, not always cover all cases.

Good idea. Thanks, Mark.
