While UART work in DMA mode, function start_rx will request descriptor
from DMA engine, if there is no left descriptor UART, driver will give
err logs "DMA slave single fail".

currently start_rx is called in set_termios function, so everytime, port
setting will call start_rx once.

Now put start_rx in startup, it will be called once while open the port.

when UART works in DMA mode and left bytes in rx fifo less than
a dma transfer unit, DMA engine can't transfer the bytes out
to rx DMA buffer. so it need a way to fetch them out and
flush them into tty buffer in time.

in the above case, we want UART switch from DMA mode to PIO mode and
fetch && flush bytes into tty layer buffer until rxfifo become empty,
after that done let UART switch from PIO mode back to DMA mode.
(record as method1)

method1 result in the next receive result wrong. for example in PIO part
of method1, we fetched && pushed X1...X3 bytes, when UART rxfifo newly
received Y1...Y4 bytes, UART trigger a DMA unit transfer, the DMA unit's
content is X1...X3Y1 and rxfifo fifo status is empty, so X1X2X3 pushed
twice by PIO way and DMA way also the bytes Y2Y3Y4 missed. add rxfifo
reset operation before UART switch back to DMA mode would resolve the
issue. ([method1 + do fifo reset] record as method2)

before the commit, UART driver use method2. but methd2 have a risk of
data loss, as if UART's shift register receive a complete byte and
transfer it into rxfifo before rxfifo reset operation the byte will
loss.

UART and USP have the similar bits CLEAR_RX_ADDR_EN(uart)/FRADDR_CLR_EN(usp),
When found UART controller changing I/O to DMA mode, UART controller
clears the two low bits of read point (rx_fifo_addr[1:0]).
when enable the bit + method1(record as method3), in above example
the DMA unit's content is X1...X3Y1 and there are Y2Y3Y4 in rxfifo by
experiment, we just push bytes in rx DMA buffer.

BTW, the workaround works only for UART receive DMA channel use SINGLE
DMA mode.

set_irq_flags is ARM specific with custom flags which have genirq
equivalents. Convert drivers to use the genirq interfaces directly, so we
can kill off set_irq_flags. The translation of flags is as follows:

IRQF_VALID -> !IRQ_NOREQUEST
IRQF_PROBE -> !IRQ_NOPROBE
IRQF_NOAUTOEN -> IRQ_NOAUTOEN

For IRQs managed by an irqdomain, the irqdomain core code handles clearing
and setting IRQ_NOREQUEST already, so there is no need to do this in
.map() functions and we can simply remove the set_irq_flags calls. Some
users also set IRQ_NOPROBE and this has been maintained although it is not
clear that is really needed. There appears to be a great deal of blind
copy and paste of this code.

when the serial works as a bluetooth sink, due to audio realtime
requirement, the driver should have something similar with ALSA:
1. one big DMA buffer to easy the schedule jitter
2. split this big DMA buffer to multiple small periods, for each
period, we get a DMA interrupt, then push the data to userspace.
the small periods will easy the audio latency.

so ALSA generally uses a cyclic chained DMA.

but for sirfsoc, the dma hardware has the limitation: we have
only two loops in the cyclic mode, so we can only support two
small periods to switch. if we make the DMA buffer too big, we
get long latency, if we make the DMA buffer too little, we get
miss in scheduling for audio realtime.

so this patch moves to use a hrtimer to simulate the cyclic
DMA, then we can have a big buffer, and also have a timely
data push to users as the hrtimer can generate in small period
then actual HW interrupts.

with this patch, we also delete a lot of complex codes to handle
loop buffers, and RX timeout interrupt since the RX work can be
completely handled from hrtimer interrupt.

tests show using this way will make our bad audio streaming be-
come smooth.

A corner case exists in the current driver. if an app opens the console
device, and before writing to console device, and there are huge kernel
ogs to print out, system will hang on
sirfsoc_uart_console_putchar:
while (rd_regl(port, ureg->sirfsoc_tx_fifo_status) &
	ufifo_st->ff_full(port->line))
	cpu_relax();
as in sirfsoc_uart_startup(), the driver assigns tx_fifo_op to 0 will stop
TX FIFO, this loop will be endless.

In special condition, when cpu schedule into rx_tmo_process_tl or
rx_dma_complete_tl and all the receive dma tasks have done, it will
go into endless loop because no dma task cookie status be changed.

>From HW spec, when rxfifo's data is less than AFC_RX_THD(RX threshhold), RTS
signal is active. otherwise, RTS signal is inactive.

Crrently the RX threshhold is set as zero, so RTS has no chance to be
active. This patch replaces the default 0 by a positive number.
