tty: goldfish: Use streaming DMA for r/w operations on Ranchu platforms Implement tty r/w operations using streaming DMA. Goldfish tty for Ranchu platforms has been modified to use streaming DMA mappings for read/write operations. This change eliminates the need for snooping through the TLB in QEMU using cpu_get_phys_page_debug() which does not guarantee that it will return the valid va -> pa mapping. The streaming DMA mapping is implemented using dma_map_single() per transfer, while dma_unmap_single() is used for unmapping right after the DMA transfer. Using DMA API is the proper way for handling r/w transfers and makes this driver more portable, thus effectively eliminating the need for virt_to_page() and page_to_phys() conversions. This change does not affect the old style Goldfish tty behaviour which is still used by the Goldfish emulator. Version register has been added and probed to see which platform is running this driver. Reading from the new register GOLDFISH_TTY_REG_VERSION using the Goldfish emulator will return 0 and driver will work with virtual addresses. Whereas if run on Ranchu it returns 1, and thus DMA is used. (Goldfish and Ranchu are code names for the first and the second generation of virtual boards used by Android emulator.)
