dmaengine: virt-dma: don't always free descriptor upon completion
This patch attempts to enhance the case of a transfer submitted multiple times, and where the cost of creating the descriptors chain is not negligible. This happens with big video buffers (several megabytes, ie. several thousands of linked descriptors in one scatter-gather list). In these cases, a video driver would want to do : - tx = dmaengine_prep_slave_sg() - dma_engine_submit(tx); - dma_async_issue_pending() - wait for video completion - read video data (or not, skipping a frame is also possible) - dma_engine_submit(tx) => here, the descriptors chain recalculation will take time => the dma coherent allocation over and over might create holes in the dma pool, which is counter-productive. - dma_async_issue_pending() - etc ... In order to cope with this case, virt-dma is modified to prevent freeing the descriptors upon completion if DMA_CTRL_REUSE flag is set in the transfer. This patch is a respin of the former DMA_CTRL_ACK approach, which was reverted due to a regression in audio drivers.
