Thomas Petazzoni 44d5887a8b dmaengine: mv_xor_v2: fix tx_submit() implementation
The mv_xor_v2_tx_submit() gets the next available HW descriptor by
calling mv_xor_v2_get_desq_write_ptr(), which reads a HW register
telling the next available HW descriptor. This was working fine when HW
descriptors were issued for processing directly in tx_submit().

However, as part of the review process of the driver, a change was
requested to move the actual kick-off of HW descriptors processing to
->issue_pending(). Due to this, reading the HW register to know the next
available HW descriptor no longer works.

So instead of using this HW register, we implemented a software index
pointing to the next available HW descriptor.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
