dmaengine : xilinx_dma two issues

Hello,

I'm trying to get the 5.10 kernel up and running for our system, and
I'm running into a couple of issues with xilinx_dma.

First, commit 14ccf0aab46e 'dmaengine: xilinx_dma: In dma channel
probe fix node order dependency' breaks our usage. Before this commit
a call to:
dma_request_chan(&indio_dev->dev, "axi_dma_0");
returns fine, but after that commit it returns -19. The reason for
this seems to be that the only channel that is setup is channel 1
(chan->id is 1 in xilinx_dma_chan_probe()). However in
of_dma_xilinx_xlate() chan_id is gets set to 0 (int chan_id =
dma_spec->args[0];), which causes the:
!xdev->chan[chan_id]
test to fail in of_dma_xilinx_xlate()

Our device-tree entry looks like this:
    axi_dma_0: dma at 80002000 {
        status = "okay";
        #dma-cells = <1>;
        compatible = "xlnx,axi-dma-1.00.a";
        interrupt-parent = <&gic>;
        interrupts = <0 89 4>;
        reg = <0x0 0x80002000 0x0 0x1000>;
        xlnx,addrwidth = <0x20>;
        clocks = <&zynqmp_clk LPD_LSBUS>, <&zynqmp_clk LPD_LSBUS>,
<&zynqmp_clk LPD_LSBUS>, <&zynqmp_clk LPD_LSBUS>;
        clock-names = "s_axi_lite_aclk", "m_axi_sg_aclk",
"m_axi_mm2s_aclk", "m_axi_s2mm_aclk";
        dma-channel at 80002030 {
            compatible = "xlnx,axi-dma-s2mm-channel";
            dma-channels = <0x1>;
            interrupts = <0 89 4>;
            xlnx,datawidth = <0x20>;
            xlnx,device-id = <0x0>;
        };
    };

This is on a 5.10.1 kernel on arm64 zynqmp hardware.

The second issue goes a little further back to commit e81274cd6b526
'dmaengine: add support to dynamic register/unregister of channels'.
After this commit even just removing the module 'rmmod xilinx_dma',
without ever using it, results in a kernel oops like this:

So if I use the 04c2bc2bede1 (commit before 14ccf0aab46e) version of
xilinx_dma.c and never remove the module then it is working with the
5.10.1 kernel.

Hopefully, this will be clear to someone how these issues can be
resolved. In general we've been very happy using the xilinx dma.

I'm not subscribed to the linux-kernel ML so if you need any further
info or testing just keep me in the to: list.

thanks,
Paul
