Subject: spi: When no dma_chan map buffers with spi_master's parent

From: Daniel Kurtz <djkurtz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 88b0aa544af58ce3be125a1845a227264ec9ab89 upstream.

Back before commit 1dccb598df54 ("arm64: simplify dma_get_ops"), for
arm64, devices for which dma_ops were not explicitly set were automatically
configured to use swiotlb_dma_ops, since this was hard-coded as the
global "dma_ops" in arm64_dma_init().

Now that global "dma_ops" has been removed, all devices much have their
dma_ops explicitly set by a call to arch_setup_dma_ops(), otherwise the
device is assigned dummy_dma_ops, and thus calls to map_sg for such a
device will fail (return 0).

Mediatek SPI uses DMA but does not use a dma channel.  Support for this
was added by commit c37f45b5f1cd ("spi: support spi without dma channel
to use can_dma()"), which uses the master_spi dev to DMA map buffers.

The master_spi device is not a platform device, rather it is created
in spi_alloc_device(), and therefore its dma_ops are never set.

Therefore, when the mediatek SPI driver when it does DMA (for large SPI
transactions > 32 bytes), SPI will use spi_map_buf()->dma_map_sg() to
map the buffer for use in DMA.  But dma_map_sg()->dma_map_sg_attrs() returns
0, because ops->map_sg is dummy_dma_ops->__dummy_map_sg, and hence
spi_map_buf() returns -ENOMEM (-12).

Fix this by using the real spi_master's parent device which should be a
real physical device with DMA properties.
