Changes in v2:
- fix reg size in dt example
- fix dt_binding check warning
- add list in MAINTAINERS entry
Changes from v2 to v3:
none
Changes from v3 to v4:
none
Changes from v4 to v5:
as per Rob's comments:
- change compatible field from 'altr,msgdma' to
'altr,socfpga-msgdma' to indicate that it's compatible
with altera socfpga family.
- describe each region separately
- remove maxItems/minItems for reg section.
as per Vinod's comments:
- separate MAINTAINERS editing in another commit

2.31.0.rc2
This driver had no device tree support.
- add compatible field "altr,socfpga-msgdma"
- define msgdma_of_xlate, with no argument
- register dma controller with of_dma_controller_register

Notes:
Changes in v2:
none
Changes from v2 to v3:
Removed CONFIG_OF #ifdef's and use if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF))
only once.
Changes from v3 to v4
Reintroduce #ifdef CONFIG_OF for msgdma_match
as it produces a unused variable warning
Changes from v4 to v5
- As per Rob's comments on patch 1/2:
change compatible field from altr,msgdma to
altr,socfpga-msgdma.
- change commit title to fit previous commits naming
- As per Vinod's comments:
- use dma_get_slave_channel instead of dma_get_any_slave_channel which
makes more sense.
- remove if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF)) for of_dma_controller_register
as it is taken care by the core

Should this be treated as an error.. the probe will be invoked on non of

I guess i could, but i don't think i need to define a filter function,
also there is only one possible channel.

Ok, i'm a bit confused,
in v4 those lines were enclosed with 'if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF)) { }'
when you said to me that it was already taken care by the core i though
that of_dma_controller_register will return 0 on non-of systems.
Now i can add back IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF) or discard the ret value.

Yeah no point in adding filter_fn. I guess we need
of_dma_xlate_by_chan_id() here, I guess you are specifying channel in dts
right? If not above would be okay

Well including in CONFIG_OF sounded protection from compilation which is
not required.
Now the issue is that you maybe running on a system which may or maynot
have DT and even on DT based systems your device may not be DT one..
So i think the return should be handled here if DT device is not present
and warn that and continue for not DT modes.. Also someone who has this
non DT device should test the changes

Yes i am, but as this controller has only one channel I was thinking not to fail
if something other than chan_id == 0 is specified. But it may not be right,
I could also remove the argument in the device tree but dma controller
schema expects at least one argument.
Now i think maybe it makes more sense to use of_dma_xlate_by_chan_id and
expect chan_id == 0 in the dt.

I can do that.
I think Stefan used this driver on non-DT platform but he said
that he has no access to the hardware anymore.
