This patchset (re)introduces STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining feature. As the DMA is not able to generate convenient burst transfer on the DDR, it penalises the AXI bus when accessing the DDR. While it accesses optimally the SRAM. The DMA-MDMA chaining then consists in having an SRAM buffer between DMA and MDMA, so the DMA deals with peripheral and SRAM, and the MDMA with SRAM and DDR. The feature relies on the fact that DMA channel Transfer Complete signal can trigger a MDMA channel transfer and MDMA can clear the DMA request by writing to DMA Interrupt Clear register. A deeper introduction can be found in patch 1. Previous implementation [1] has been dropped as nacked. Unlike this previous implementation (where all the stuff was embedded in stm32-dma driver), the user (in peripheral drivers using dma) has now to configure the MDMA channel.
