Introduce mhi_get_free_desc_count() API to return number


Would it not be a good idea to have naming aligned with other methods?
Like mhi_queue_num_free() or mhi_queue_no_free_elem...


'queue_num_free' doesn't sound like getting the number of available
descriptors...

Right, TBH, just wanted the function to start with mhi_queue since
it's about getting info about remaining size of the DL or UL 'virtual
queue'. But AFAIU, this is the number of available ring elements that
is returned here, not the number of transfer descriptors (that can be
composed of one or more ring elements), so maybe
mhi_queue_num_free_elements or something similar, I don't want to be
mhi_get_free_desc_count is the number of TREs available which queue APIs can use to queue an transfer ring element. My only concern is if we get confused with the name mhi_queue_ part of as number of TREs queued ? Transfer ring element is indeed a transfer descriptor.
picky here.

Loic
