dmaengine_slave_config is called by dmaengine_pcm_hw_params when using
axi-i2s with axi-dmac. If device_config is NULL, -ENOSYS is returned,
which breaks the snd_pcm_hw_params function.
This is a fix for the error:

The DMA has a direct connection to the peripheral and the peripheral
data port is not connected to the general purpose memory interconnect.
So you can't write to it by an MMIO address and there is no address
that needs to be configured. For an FPGA based design this is quite a
good solution in terms of resource usage, performance and simplicity. A
direct connection requires less resources than connection it to the
central memory interconnect, while at the same time having lower latency
and not eating up any additional bandwidth on the central memory connect.
So slave config in this case is a noop and all it can do is verify that
the requested configuration matches the available configuration.

So the question for you hw folks is how would a controller work with
multiple slave devices, do they need to synthesize it everytime?
Rather than that why cant they make the peripheral addresses
programmable so that you dont need updating fpga everytime!

Well FPGA doesnt mean hw should know everything, having SW program
things is not a terrible idea

any alternative recommendations of what to do in this case?
i can take a look, but if you have something on-the-top-of-your-head, i'm
open to suggestions
we can also just drop this completely and let userspace fail

This DMA controller is a bit special.
It gets synthesized in FPGA, so the configuration is fixed and cannot be
changed at runtime. Maybe later we would allow/implement this
functionality, but this is a question for my HDL colleagues.
Two things are done (in this order):
1. For some paramters, axi_dmac_parse_chan_dt() is used to determine things
from device-tree; as it's an FPGA core, things are synthesized once and
cannot change (yet)
2. For other parameters, the axi_dmac_detect_caps() is used to guess some
of them at probe time, by doing some reg reads/writes
I'll admit that maybe the whole approach could be done a bit
differently/better. But I guess this approach was chosen by the fact that
it's FPGA.
Btw: if I'm talking crap, or I may sound like I don't know what I'm talking
about, that could also be true. I am not quite versed in the DMAEngine
framework.

So you intent to support slave dma but do not use dma_slave_config.. how
are you getting the slave address and other details?
