Well, we are supporting Android for HDA-based platforms only. At least
that's true for Androids my team is covering. LPT/WPT and BYT/CHT/BSW
architectures are not part of that coverage (and I'm not aware of any
support for these on Android, probably some hard-maintainance with no
possibility of changes). As HDA DMAs are made use of during image
loading in cAVS+, there is no need for enlisting DW DMAC.
BYT/CHT/BSW support moved to /sound/soc/intel/atom (away from
/sound/soc/intel/baytrail in case of BYT) mostly with support available
in SOF too. Support for that architecture in either of the solutions is
not within my area of expertise but I don't believe any DMAC is enlisted
there either.

Indeed, that simplifies things. Ack.

And this is a very good approach. Thought device_get_match_data is
'heavier' than the devm_kzalloc.

One could say ADSP subsystem in LPT/WPT is made of following modules:
- dsp (shim) space
- 2x dma (engine 0 & 1)
- 2x ssp (with 1 tasked with BT-paths and 0 for non-BT-paths)
Recommended sequences in dsp.c (_power_up/ _power_down) will be
operating only on SHIM and SSP spaces. DMA space is actually only
accessed when dumping memory during device coredump. Because of that
though, I cannot say "adsp will never access DMA space".
-
I did some testing today and indeed very simple approach suffices:
- devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource for DSP bar
- devm_platform_ioremap_resource for PCI bar
- instead of doing devm_ioremap_resource() separately for dmac in
catpt_dmac_probe(), just do:
dmac->regs = cdev->lpe_ba + cdev->spec->host_dma_offset[<engine id>]

Did some reconnaissance and it while this registers are shared, LPT/WPT
are equipped with a newer version of said ssp device with some old
functionalities have been removed too. So the question comes down to: do
I re-use PXA2XX registers due to historical background (inheritance)
-or- leave it explicit as is. Honestly, I don't really mind either of
these. Got surprised by short register names in mentioned header though.

I'll see what I can do.
