dmatest(memcpy) will never call dmaengine_slave_config before prep,

and that should have been a hint to you that you should not expect that

so jobs in dmaengine_slave_config need to be moved into somewhere
before device_prep_dma_memcpy. Besides, dmatest never setup chan
->private as other common case like uart/audio/spi will always setup
chan->private. Here check it to judge if it's dmatest case and do
jobs in slave_config.

and you should not do anything for dmatest. Supporting it means memcpy
implementation is not correct :)

Okay, I will any word about dmatest here since memcpy assume no calling
slave_config.

why is that a warning!

Current SDMA driver assume filter function to set chan->private with specific data 
(struct imx_dma_data dma_data)like below (sound/soc/fsl/fsl_asrc_dma.c):
static bool filter(struct dma_chan *chan, void *param)
{
        if (!imx_dma_is_general_purpose(chan))
                return false;
        chan->private = param;
        return true;
}

But in memcpy case, at lease dmatest case, no chan->private set in its filter function.
So here take dmatest a special case and do some prepare jobs for memcpy. But if the
Upper device driver call dma_request_channel() with their specific filter without
'chan->private' setting in the future. The warning message is a useful hint to them to
Add 'chan->private' in filter function.  Or doc it somewhere?

Instead of doing heuristics to guess whether we are doing memcpy you
could instead make memcpy the default when slave_config is not called,
i.e. drop the if (!data) check completely.

this needs to be default for memcpy

The problem seems to be that we do not know whether we are doing memcpy
or not. Normally we get the information how a channel is to be
configured in dma_device->device_config, but this function is not called
in the memcpy case.

An alternative might also be to do the setup in dma_device->device_prep_dma_memcpy.
