From fd5e191e7610eb7ecb5e35b2045ceb6554bea15a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Rapoport Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2009 19:00:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] SPI: add dma_alignment field to spi_master Some SPI controllers have restrictions on DMAable buffers alignemt. Currently if the buffer supplied by protocol driver is not properly aligned, the controller silently performs transfer in PIO mode. Addition of dma_alignment field to spi_master allows protocol drivers to perform proper alignment.
