In mainline kernels, DMA is limited to the MX2 SoC family. The MX3 that
I'm using is excluded from that feature, but I'mm not aware of the
reason for that.

I didn't really debug it yet, but from what I see in the sources, the
maximum block size is 2048. The hardware is connected via the 4-wire
interface (+clk, +cmd). The system I tried that on has a MMC slot where
I can plug in either the WLAN eval kit or a memory card, and the latter
works just fine, which tells me that at least the pin config and the
hardware can't be entirely wrong.

Exactly one line ;)
