PATCH 1/1 bcma: get SoC device struct & copy its DMA params to the subdevices

From: Rafał Miłecki <[email protected]>

For bus devices to be fully usable it's required to set their DMA parameters.

For years it has been missing and remained unnoticed because of mips_dma_alloc_coherent() silently handling the empty coherent_dma_mask. Kernel 4.19 came with a lot of DMA changes and caused a regression on the bcm47xx. Starting with the commit f8c55dc6e828 ("MIPS: use generic dma noncoherent ops for simple noncoherent platforms") DMA coherent allocations just fail. Example:

[    1.114914] bgmac_bcma bcma0:2: Allocation of TX ring 0x200 failed
[    1.121215] bgmac_bcma bcma0:2: Unable to alloc memory for DMA
[    1.127626] bgmac_bcma: probe of bcma0:2 failed with error -12
[    1.133838] bgmac_bcma: Broadcom 47xx GBit MAC driver loaded

This change fixes above regression in addition to the MIPS bcm47xx commit 321c46b91550 ("MIPS: BCM47XX: Setup struct device for the SoC").

It also fixes another *old* GPIO regression caused by a parent pointing to the NULL:

[    0.157054] missing gpiochip .dev parent pointer
[    0.157287] bcma: bus0: Error registering GPIO driver: -22

introduced by the commit 74f4e0cc6108 ("bcma: switch GPIO portions to use GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP").

Fixes f8c55dc6e828 ("MIPS: use generic dma noncoherent ops for simple noncoherent platforms")

While this patch is a regression fix, it depends on a change present in the wireless-drivers-next.git:
bcma: keep a direct pointer to the struct device

That's why I suggest pushing it into the wireless-drivers-next.git and I can take care of picking it for the [email protected] later.

Another option would be cherry-picking commit 5a1c18b761dd ("bcma: keep a direct pointer to the struct device") to the wireless-drivers.git but I don't think it's a common practice.

I don't think this does the right thing for bcma devices behind PCI/PCIe, as those might need a IOMMU which relies on having a device it has properly enumerated to be passed into the DMA API. In other
words: I think you need to change the layering so that the DMA API is always called on the underlying PCI/PCIe/platform device, not of the child bus.

This is already implemented (we have dma_dev pointer), but it may be indeed more correct to apply this change for the SoC code only. I'll send V2.

Rafal, there was supposed to be a v2, but I could not find one, this is the regression that prevented bgmac_bcma from loading while testing upstream, did you have a v2 ready already to be submitted somehow?

Thanks!

Please Cc me on the next version. Copying over dma parameters sounds like the wrong thing to do.
