The initial IDMAC settings were relatively sane defaults taken from the original NXP driver, and things that were deducted from the source. Most of the values pertain to the block layer: * max_seg_size /* upper limit on size of a coalesced segment */ * max_segs /* upper limit on hw data segments in a request */ * max_req_size /* maximum number of bytes in one request */ * max_blk_size /* maximum size of one mmc block */ * max_blk_count /* maximum number of blocks in one request */ They may not be the most efficient defaults, as they used the whole of the IDMAC bandwidth (max_segs and max_blk_count are the size of the whole ring buffer, and max_seg_size is the size of the largest DMA transferrable block) but this shouldn't hinder a dual-buffered implementation.
