Switch from dma_request_channel to allow passing dma channel information from DT rather than hardcoding a value. Signed-off-by: Franklin S Cooper Jr <redacted>Acked-by: Roger Quadros <redacted>quoted

How about moving the dma bindings to the nand node instead and using pdev->dev here?Roger, From what I can tell the interrupt number and the dma channel will always be the same no matter what. Doesn't matter if you have multiple nands or a combination of nands and nors. Since that is the case I think it just makes sense to leave it in the gpmc parent node and define it once.Is prefetch/writepost dma used for NOR or any other GPMC peripheral or only for NAND?The dma seems tied to the prefetch. From what I can tell the prefetch is only used by nand.quoted
Let's also get Tony's inputs on this.Sure.Hmm so what would keep other devices from using the prefetch
Looking at the TRM any references to the prefetch are always with respect to NAND. I also see the below mentioned in the TRM. Pre-fetch and write posting engine associated with system DMA to get full performance from NAND device with minimum impact on NOR/SRAM concurrent access.
