mainlining shenanigans

The UDMA and BCDMA can provide higher throughput if the burst_size of the channel is changed from it's default (which is 64 bytes) for Ultra-high and high capacity channels. This performance benefit is even more visible when the buffers are aligned with the burst_size configuration. The am654 does not have a way to change the burst size, but it is using 64 bytes burst, so increasing the copy_align from 8 bytes to 64 (and clients taking that into account) can increase the throughput as well.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
