a580b8c542 dmaengine: mxs-dma: add dma support for i.MX23/28
This patch adds dma support for Freescale MXS-based SoC i.MX23/28,
including apbh-dma and apbx-dma.

* apbh-dma and apbx-dma are supported in the driver as two mxs-dma
  instances.

* apbh-dma is different between mx23 and mx28, hardware version
  register is used to differentiate.

* mxs-dma supports pio function besides data transfer.  The driver
  uses dma_data_direction DMA_NONE to identify the pio mode, and
  steals sgl and sg_len to get pio words and numbers from clients.

* mxs dmaengine has some very specific features, like sense function
  and the special NAND support (nand_lock, nand_wait4ready).  These
  are too specific to implemented in generic dmaengine driver.

* The driver refers to imx-sdma and only a single descriptor is
  statically assigned to each channel.
