Hi,

Changes since v4:
- Split the DMA_COMPLETE and !txstate check as Vinod suggested

Change since v3:
- fix DMA pointer tracking for memcpy
- completion polling is only done when it is asked by not providing
  DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT for memcpy

Changes since v2:
- Fix typo in the comment for patch 0

Changes since v1:
- Cleanup patch for the array register handling
- typo fixed in patch2 commit message

The code around the array register access was pretty confusing for the first
look, so clean them up first then use the cleaner way in the polled handling.

When a DMA client driver does not set the DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT because it
does not want to use interrupts for DMA completion or because it can not
rely on DMA interrupts due to executing the memcpy when interrupts are
disabled it will poll the status of the transfer.

Since we can not tell from any EDMA register that the transfer is
completed, we can only know that the paRAM set has been sent to TPTC for
processing we need to check the residue of the transfer, if it is 0 then
the transfer is completed.

The polled completion can bve tested by applying:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10966499/

Should I resend this patch so the polled mode can be tested in upstream?

Yes sure
