This VDMA  is a soft ip, which can be programmed to support
32 bit addressing or greater than 32 bit addressing.

When the VDMA ip is configured for 32 bit address space the buffer
address is specified by a single register (0x5C for MM2S and 0xAC for
S2MM channel).

When the  VDMA core is configured for an address space greater than 32
then each buffer address is specified by a combination of two
registers.

The first register specifies the LSB 32 bits of address, while the
next register specifies the MSB 32 bits of address.

For example, 5Ch will specify the LSB 32 bits while 60h will specify
the MSB 32 bits of the first start address.
So we need to program two registers at a time.

This patch adds the 64 bit addressing support to the vdma driver.

Doesn't the log2 of the dma-ranges size provide you with the address width?
VDMA IP configurable for 32-bit or 64-bit addressing.

In any of the configuration I mean if it is a 32-bit or 64-bit addressing there is a flexibility for the vdma to choose the
Memory range supported by the VDMA...

For example if vdma is configured for 40-bit addressing.

Theoretically it can access memory up to 1TB if it is true we can get the
Address width using log2 of the dma-ranges size as you mentioned above.

But in real use case user won't map the entire memory
He will map only the memory of his own choice...

For example user mapped 2GB then dma-ranges property will be like below.

dma-ranges = <0x00000000 0x00000000  0x80000000>;

In this case log2 of the dma-ranges size won't give exact value for address width.
That's why used separate h/w property for getting address width of the IP...

Thanks,
Kedar.
