The following contains a clarification for the behavior of the 'value'
parameter in the memset operation. It is intended to be a single byte
pattern as laid out here:

https://lore.kernel.org/dmaengine/YejrA5ZWZ3lTRO%2F1@matsya/

Then I'm attempting to fix all places it is currently used. But note
that I do not have access to this hardware and cannot test it. We'll
really need a maintainer to take a look at each of these to verify that
the changes are correct.

Ben Walker (4):
  dmaengine: Document dmaengine_prep_dma_memset
  dmaengine: at_hdmac: In atc_prep_dma_memset, treat value as a single
    byte
  dmaengine: at_xdmac: In at_xdmac_prep_dma_memset, treat value as a
    single byte
  dmaengine: hidma: In hidma_prep_dma_memset treat value as a single
    byte
