Actually internal sdma script has already take such 'align' matter like below:
Burst with words if source/dest address and data length are all aligned with words, burst with
Byte if not. So I will remove the comment '/* align with sdma->dma_device.copy_align: 4bytes */'
In v3. Besides, I have found another bug which introduced by my virt-dma patch. Will send
V3 later.
