As per the reference manual, bit "L" should be set while bit "C"
should be cleared for the last buffer descriptor in the non-cyclic
chain, so that sdma can stop trying to find the next BD and end
the transfer.

In case of sdma_prep_slave_sg(), BD_LAST needs to be set and BD_CONT
be cleared for the last BD.
Did you test this patch?
Would you suggest any driver on mx51 using this api?  So that I can
test it on my babbage board.  Or you can help test it with mx27/31
mmc driver?  I do not have them on my end.  Thanks.
I can only suggest the imx/imx-sdma-sound-mx353ds-mx51_babbage
branch, but this only uses cyclic transfers so you can't use it
to test this patch.
Yes, I tested the patch set against imx/imx-sdma-sound-mx353ds-mx51_babbage.
But the only use of sdma_prep_slave_sg I know is mxcmmc.c that you
patched recently.  And this driver is for mx27/31 which I do not have
the setup.
I asked because I could add an ack to this patch if it has been
tested. Without testing I'd like delaying it until I found some
time testing it.
Reasonable.  Thanks.
