The following 4 patches enabling fsl-dma and talitos offload raid
operations for improving raid performance and balancing CPU load.

Write performance will be improved by 25-30% tested by iozone.
Write performance is improved about 2% after using spin_lock_bh replace
spin_lock_irqsave.
CPU load will be reduced by 8%.

Changes in v3:
	- change release process of fsl-dma descriptor for resolve the
	potential race condition
	- add test result when use spin_lock_bh replace spin_lock_irqsave
	- modify the benchmark results according to the latest patch

Changes in v2:
	- rebase onto cryptodev tree
	- split the patch 3/4 up to 3 independent patches
	- remove the patch 4/4, the fix is not for cryptodev tree


Qiang Liu (4):
      Talitos: Support for async_tx XOR offload
      fsl-dma: remove attribute DMA_INTERRUPT of dmaengine
      fsl-dma: change release process of dma descriptor for supporting async_tx
      fsl-dma: use spin_lock_bh to instead of spin_lock_irqsave

Given the pending talitos patches, this patchseries doesn't apply
cleanly:  can you rebase onto [1], which is based on Herbert's
cryptodev tree and contain's Horia's four patches?  They didn't get
any negative comments, so I assume eventually they will be applied,
and doing so will make Herbert's life easier.

I applied the series on Herbert's cryptodev, and while fsldma
already had this build warning:

drivers/dma/fsldma.c: In function 'fsl_dma_tx_submit':
drivers/dma/fsldma.c:636:2: warning: 'cookie' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]

this patchseries introduces a new one:

drivers/dma/fsldma.c: In function 'dma_do_tasklet':
drivers/dma/fsldma.c:1134:16: warning: unused variable 'flags' [-Wunused-variable]

I'll wait for a re-post, after these and Ira's comments are
addressed, before trying to test again.

Thanks,

Kim

Kim, I will fix it in an another separate patch.

Sorry, my bad. I will correct it in v4 5/6 (according to Li Yang's comments,
v3 3/4 should be split up). Thanks.

I agree, I think his comments is very important.
