I don't see why this patch should be split. The goal is to remove the
configuration register snapshot and to put it in the lli descriptor.
Because I am removing this snapshot, I have to update suspend/resume and
the way I have chosen is to directly get the value from the hardware
register. If it is a blocking point I'll split it. I think you want me
to put the addition of the save_cc field into another patches but I have
no reason to do it before patch 2 since I have not encountered any bug
yet (even if I think it is safer). And if I don't do it in patch 2,
suspend/resume will be broken.


About the commit message I could elaborate a bit more:

This patch simplifies the channel configuration register management.
Relying on a "software snapshot" of the configuration is not safe and
too complex.

Multiple dwidths will be introduced for slave transfers. In this case,
it becomes quite difficult to have an accurate snapshot of the channel
configuration register in the way it is done. Using the channel
configuration available in the lli descriptor simplifies this stuff.
