Will the result depend on the initial state of the chip, such as
CSR_TRANS_DIR or CSR_HOST_BUF_NOT_RDY?

It is possible to generate an interrupt with the buffer read, which should 
be masked at the chip.

This buffer read may cause the 53C400 control logic to signal the 53C80 
core. I suppose it is unlikely to cause any signalling on the SCSI bus 
unless the 53C80 happened to be in DMA mode.

The possibility that io_width == 0 is not handled; wouldn't this result 
indicate that PDMA shouldn't be used?

io_width can be calculated without a conditional statement, which may be 
easier to read.

Can we be confident that detection will fail for all devices that don't 
support word-sized IO, to avoid a regression?

The patch seems to assume that no memory-mapped card needs word-sized IO 
for PDMA. Can you confirm?

The previous version of this patch was simpler and more predictable. You 
enabled word-size IO for DTC3181E which is testable. Does this version 
benefit any other cards?

When you added the braces, the lone semicolon became redundant. But I 
think the entire loop is bogus.

Why do we wait for CSR_GATED_53C80_IRQ? I can understand testing it during 
a transfer but why afterwards? (The core driver could test for the IRQ 
flag in the Bus and Status Register, at the end of a DMA, if this scsi 
host has no IRQ line.)

The comments and the 53C400 datasheet say we should instead wait for 
CSR_53C80_REG. I agree. The g_NCR5380 wrapper driver can't safely return 
control to the core driver unless the 53C80 registers are available.

The algorithm in the datasheet waits for CSR_53C80_REG before checking 
BASR_END_DMA_TRANSFER, checking interrupt flags, disabling DMA mode etc. 

g_NCR5380.c has an '#if 0' around the BASR_END_DMA_TRANSFER check, because 
it doesn't wait for CSR_53C80_REG. Does NCR's algorithm work with your 
cards?
