NULL pointer de-reference error was observed when all the PCIe endpoint
functions (22 function in J721E) request a DMA channel. The issue was
specfically observed when using mem-to-mem copy.

Changes from v2:
1) Fix commit subject and commit log to mention bchan/rchan/tchan to NULL
   suggested by Peter.
Looks good, however the second patch also fixes the rflow. It is
mentioned in the commit message itself.

I suppose the reason for a split is that the UDMA part
(rchan/tchan/rflow) could be backported as fix for older kernel since
the bchan came later with BCDMA/PKTDMA support?

Can you find a good Fixes tag for these?
I'll now add "Cc: [off-list ref]" so that it gets merged to 5.14. It
doesn't apply cleanly to any of the other stable kernel.

Changes from v1:
1) Split the patch for BCDMA and PKTDMA separately
2) Fixed the return value of udma_get_rflow() to 0.
3) Removed the fixes tag as the patches does not directly apply to the
commits.

v1 => https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210209090036.30832-1-kishon@ti.com (local)
v2 => https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211027055625.11150-1-kishon@ti.com (local)

  dmaengine: ti: k3-udma: Set bchan to NULL if a channel request fail
  dmaengine: ti: k3-udma: Set rchan/tchan to NULL if a channel request
    fail
dmaengine: ti: k3-udma: Set r/tchan or rflow to NULL if request fail

would have bee a better subject line, if you feel you can send an update.

Thank You! Will fix and resend.

Best Regards,
Kishon
