Grant Likely aaab5e83c2 powerpc/mpc5200: Disable bestcomm prefetching when ATA DMA enabled
When ATA DMA is enabled, bestcomm prefetching does not work.  This
patch adds a function to disable bestcomm prefetch when the ATA
Bestcomm task is initialized.

Tim Yamin e4efe3c271 powerpc/mpc5200: Bestcomm fixes to ATA support
1) ata.h has dst_pa in the wrong place (needs to match what the BestComm
   task microcode in bcom_ata_task.c expects); fix it.

2) The BestComm ATA task priority was changed to maximum in bestcomm_priv.h;
   this fixes a deadlock issue experienced with heavy DMA occurring on
   both the ATA and Ethernet BestComm tasks, e.g. when downloading a large
   file over a LAN to disk.

Sylvain Munaut 2f9ea1bde0 [POWERPC] bestcomm: core bestcomm support for Freescale MPC5200
This patch adds support for the core of the BestComm API
for the Freescale MPC5200(b). The BestComm engine is a
microcode-controlled / tasks-based DMA used by several
of the onchip devices.

Setting up the tasks / memory allocation and all common
low level functions are handled by this patch.
The specifics details of each tasks and their microcode
are split-out in separate patches.

This is not the official API, but a much cleaner one.
(hopefully)
