On STMicroelectronics variant of PL18x, the DMA Linked Lists are supported

as all the buffers should be aligned on block size (except the last one).
But this cannot be guaranteed with SDIO. We should then have a property
to disable the support of LLI.

Actually I think this is present also on the ux500 variants. See:
commit 2253ed4b36dc876d1598c4dab5587e537ec68c34
"mmc: mmci: Support any block sizes for ux500v2 and qcom variant"
Spot the variant data "dma_power_of_2".
So whatever property you add
to the variant data (not in the device tree please) should
be added to the ux500 variants as well, it will *VERY* likely
have a problem with LLI elements not being a power of 2
as it is the ancestor of later STMicro variants.
It might actually be the reason for some annoying WiFi error
messages I have seen :/

Hi Linus,
The STM32 variant uses an internal DMA, and the DMA functions are in its
dedicated file. So I was planning to do the same as what is done in
meson-gx-mmc.c: using a bounce buffer to copy from/to in case DMA
constraints are not fulfilled. Not sure it can help for Ux500.
Ulf, before I send my new series (although it is not ready yet), would
you be OK with the bounce buffer idea?
Best regards,
Yann
