Hello, here comments from Shawn Lin:

Seriously review the patch again, commit 271e1b86e691 "dmaengine:
pl330: add quirk for broken no flushp" has not chance to break
the platforms which don't add quirk inside the dts stuff.
as well as the other works from rockchip.

But refer to Boojin Kim's patch,
dmaengine: pl330: support burst mode for dev-to-mem and mem-to-dev transmit

may some platforms can't support multi-burst? If that's the case,
the been-broken driver should limit the maxburst.
