The main goal of this series is to fix the data disappearance in case of the DW UART handled by the DW AHB DMA engine. The problem happens on a portion of the data received when the pre-initialized DEV_TO_MEM DMA-transfer is paused and then disabled. The data just hangs up in the DMA-engine FIFO and isn't flushed out to the memory on the DMA-channel suspension (see the second commit log for details). On a way to find the denoted problem fix it was discovered that the driver doesn't verify the peripheral device address width specified by a client driver, which in its turn if unsupported or undefined value passed may cause DMA-transfer being misconfigured. It's fixed in the first patch of the series. In addition to that three cleanup patches follow the fixes described above in order to make the DWC-engine configuration procedure more coherent. First one simplifies the CTL_LO register setup methods. Second and third patches simplify the max-burst calculation procedure and unify it with the rest of the verification methods. Please see the patches log for more details. Final patch is another cleanup which unifies the status variables naming in the driver.
