    ASoC: dmaengine_pcm: Add support for packed transfers · 73fe01cf

    dmaengine_pcm currently only supports setups where FIFO reads/writes
    correspond to exactly one sample, eg 16-bit sample data is transferred
    via 16-bit FIFO accesses, 32-bit data via 32-bit accesses.
    
    This patch adds support for setups with fixed width FIFOs where
    multiple samples are packed into a larger word.
    
    For example setups with a 32-bit wide FIFO register that expect
    16-bit sample transfers to be done with the left+right sample data
    packed into a 32-bit word.
    
    Support for packed transfers is controlled via the
    SND_DMAENGINE_PCM_DAI_FLAG_PACK flag in snd_dmaengine_dai_dma_data.flags
    
    If this flag is set dmaengine_pcm doesn't put any restriction on the
    supported formats and sets the DMA transfer width to undefined.
    
    This means control over the constraints is now transferred to the DAI
    driver and it's responsible to provide proper configuration and
    check for possible corner cases that aren't handled by the ALSA core.
