The driver should not report that it handled interrupts unless it
actually did so otherwise shared interrupts won't work and if something
goes wrong that causes the interrupt to scream then the interrupt core
won't be able to do any error handling.  The driver should instead check
to see if any interrupts occurred and only acknowledge those it actually
handled.

This will unconditionally fail if an interrupt is not provided which
will be incompatible with existing systems given that we don't currently
use the interrupt, I'm pretty sure you can find some in-tree devices
that get broken by this.  It's not like we even use the interrupt on
most systems so we should handle it being missing gracefully.

I'm also not seeing any code which masks or unmasks interrupts, if we
unconditionally enable interrupts we've no intention of using I'd expect
that will cause needless overhead for systems that don't use them.
Requesting it is fine but I'd expect to see the FIFO interrupts masked
in the device.

Are you *sure* that this results in safe freeing of the interrupt?
Until the interrupt is freed the interrupt could still fire so the
handler would need to support things being freed while the interrupt is
firing.  It is safer to manually free.

This breaks non-DT users like the AMD graphics card.

This code does not do DMA but it's using identifiers saying that it is
(which hence look like obvious bugs given that they're not using DMA
safe memory accesses).  This is just a scratch holding buffer AFAICT,
I'd expect to see code which says that explicitly.

It's not entirely clear that we have any bounds checking or anything to
make sure we stay within the buffer, there's an end of period reset but
it's hard to tell if that's enough.  I'm also not entirely sure why the
memcpy() is there at all - we appear to copy then immediately write to
FIFO which doesn't seem to add anything.

I'd also recommend looking at the xtfpga-i2s driver, it is for similar
hardware but avoids things like the memcpy().

Remove empty functions, if that's not possible that's usually a sign
that the function needs to do something.

This is adding a device tree binding but not documenting it.  All new
device tree bindings need to be documented.
