PATCH2 is Acked but PATCH1 is under-review. Currently, its
v6 of that patchset.

The only dependency on that patchset is the changes in
brcm-message.h which are required by this BCM-SBA-RAID

[PATCH v6 0/4] Broadcom SBA RAID support

[Anup Patel]

The Broadcom SBA RAID is a stream-based device which provides
RAID5/6 offload.

It requires a SoC specific ring manager (such as Broadcom FlexRM
ring manager) to provide ring-based programming interface. Due to
this, the Broadcom SBA RAID driver (mailbox client) implements
DMA device having one DMA channel using a set of mailbox channels
provided by Broadcom SoC specific ring manager driver (mailbox
controller).

The Broadcom SBA RAID hardware requires PQ disk position instead
of PQ disk coefficient. To address this, we have added raid_gflog
table which will help driver to convert PQ disk coefficient to PQ
disk position.

This patchset is based on Linux-4.11-rc1 and depends on patchset
"[PATCH v5 0/2] Broadcom FlexRM ring manager support"

It is also available at sba-raid-v6 branch of
https://github.com/Broadcom/arm64-linux.git

Changes since v5:
 - Rebased patches for Linux-4.11-rc1

Changes since v4:
 - Removed dependency of bcm-sba-raid driver on kconfig opton
   ASYNC_TX_ENABLE_CHANNEL_SWITCH
 - Select kconfig options ASYNC_TX_DISABLE_XOR_VAL_DMA and
   ASYNC_TX_DISABLE_PQ_VAL_DMA for bcm-sba-raid driver
 - Implemented device_prep_dma_interrupt() using dummy 8-byte
   copy operation so that the dma_async_device_register() can
   set DMA_ASYNC_TX capability for the DMA device provided
   by bcm-sba-raid driver

Changes since v3:
 - Replaced SBA_ENC() with sba_cmd_enc() inline function
 - Use list_first_entry_or_null() wherever possible
 - Remove unwanted brances around loops wherever possible
 - Use lockdep_assert_held() where required

Changes since v2:
 - Droped patch to handle DMA devices having support for fewer
   PQ coefficients in Linux Async Tx
 - Added work-around in bcm-sba-raid driver to handle unsupported
   PQ coefficients using multiple SBA requests

Changes since v1:
 - Droped patch to add mbox_channel_device() API
 - Used GENMASK and BIT macros wherever possible in bcm-sba-raid driver
 - Replaced C_MDATA macros with static inline functions in
   bcm-sba-raid driver
 - Removed sba_alloc_chan_resources() callback in bcm-sba-raid driver
 - Used dev_err() instead of dev_info() wherever applicable
 - Removed call to sba_issue_pending() from sba_tx_submit() in
   bcm-sba-raid driver
 - Implemented SBA request chaning for handling (len > sba->req_size)
   in bcm-sba-raid driver
 - Implemented device_terminate_all() callback in bcm-sba-raid driver

[PATCH v6 0/4] Broadcom SBA RAID support

[Anup Patel]

The Broadcom SBA RAID is a stream-based device which provides
RAID5/6 offload.

It requires a SoC specific ring manager (such as Broadcom FlexRM
ring manager) to provide ring-based programming interface. Due to
this, the Broadcom SBA RAID driver (mailbox client) implements
DMA device having one DMA channel using a set of mailbox channels
provided by Broadcom SoC specific ring manager driver (mailbox
controller).

The Broadcom SBA RAID hardware requires PQ disk position instead
of PQ disk coefficient. To address this, we have added raid_gflog
table which will help driver to convert PQ disk coefficient to PQ
disk position.

This patchset is based on Linux-4.11-rc1 and depends on patchset
"[PATCH v5 0/2] Broadcom FlexRM ring manager support"

It is also available at sba-raid-v6 branch of
https://github.com/Broadcom/arm64-linux.git

Changes since v5:
