Subject: [PATCH v1 0/4] char: xillybus: Remove usage of the deprecated 'pci-dma-compat.h' API

In [1], Christoph Hellwig has proposed to remove the wrappers in
include/linux/pci-dma-compat.h.

Some reasons why this API should be removed have been given by Julia
Lawall in [2].

However, updating 'drivers/char/xillybus' is a bit tricky because of its use of
'struct xilly_mapping' and 'struct xilly_endpoint'.

The first patch is just the easy part of the pci_  --> dma_ conversion. This is
mostly done with a coccinelle script.

The second updates 'struct xilly_mapping' (and code using it) to explicitly use
the dma_ API.

The third takes care of 'struct xilly_endpoint' (and code using it).

Finally, the 4th patch is a clean-up to remove a now useless parameter from
'xillybus_init_endpoint()'


These changes also offert the opportunity to merge some code from
'xillybus_pcie.c' and 'xillybus_of.c' into 'xillybus_core.c'.
See 'xilly_dma_sync_single_for_cpu_of()' and
'xilly_dma_sync_single_for_cpu_pci()' for example.

This goes beyond the scope of removing the usage of the deprecated
'pci-dma-compat.h' API. The need of 'xilly_pci_direction()' should then be
discussed.
It could be included afterwards it required.


All these patches have been compile tested only.
