Subject: i2c: i2c-mxs: Use DMA mode even for small transfers
From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit d6e102f498cbcc8dd2e36721a01213f036397112 upstream.
Recently we have been seing some reports about PIO mode not working properly.
- http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg11985.html
- http://marc.info/?l=linux-i2c&m=137235593101385&w=2
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/6/24/430
Let's use DMA mode even for small transfers.
Without this patch, i2c reads the incorrect sgtl5000 version on a mx28evk when
touchscreen is enabled:
[ 5.856270] sgtl5000 0-000a: Device with ID register 0 is not a sgtl5000
[ 9.877307] sgtl5000 0-000a: ASoC: failed to probe CODEC -19
[ 9.883528] mxs-sgtl5000 sound.12: ASoC: failed to instantiate card -19
[ 9.892955] mxs-sgtl5000 sound.12: snd_soc_register_card failed (-19)
[wsa: we have a proper solution for -next, so this non intrusive
solution is OK for now]
