The commit message should explain why such a change is
needed. (i.e. why using dma_alloc_coherent here is better
than kmalloc.) And if there's no benefit for this change I'd prefer
leaving it untouched.
I remembered reading somewhere that stream DMA api is
prefered over dma_alloc_coherent for this kind of single-direction
DMA operation.

This name is a bit confusing considering there's a mtk_nor_read_dma
below.
As this function now only executes dma readings and wait it to finish,
what about mtk_nor_dma_exec instead?

These alignment is guaranteed by callers of this function if all
my comments below are addressed. This check isn't needed.

The intention of this rdlen alignment is explained in 2/5.
Please make sure this rdlen alignment logic is present
only for PIO reading.

I think a separated read_dma and read_bounce function will be
cleaner than this if-else implementation:
read_dma:
1. call dma_map_single to get physical address
2. call read_dma to execute operation
3. call dma_unmap_single

read_bounce:
1. align reading length
2. call read_dma
3. call memcpy

There is extra memory allocation code for sp->buffer in mtk_nor_probe.
If you intend to replace this with dma_alloc_coherent you should
drop those devm_kmalloc code as well.

There's a devm variant: dmam_alloc_coherent(dev, size, dma_handle, gfp)

This spi-nor controller requires all addresses to be 16-byte aligned.
Although it should be guaranteed by a usually way larger page
alignment address from dma_alloc_coherent I'd prefer an explicit
check for address alignment here rather than letting it probe
successfully and fail for every dma_read with bounce buffer.
