RE: [PATCH -next] ASoC: sh: rz-ssi: Fix return value check in rz_ssi_dma_request()

[Biju Das]

Hi Yang Yingliang,

Still some improvements to be done on this patch.
If one of the dma channel is failed, we should fallback that channel to PIO.

Something like below. I will post a new patch after testing this.

ssi->playback.transfer = rz_ssi_pio_send;
ssi->capture.transfer = rz_ssi_pio_recv;

/* Detect DMA support */
ret = rz_ssi_dma_request(ssi, &pdev->dev);
if (ret < 0) {
	dev_warn(&pdev->dev, "DMA not available, using PIO\n");
} else {
	dev_info(&pdev->dev, "DMA enabled");
	if (ssi->playback.dma_ch)
		ssi->playback.transfer = rz_ssi_dma_transfer;
	if (ssi->capture.dma_ch)
		ssi->capture.transfer = rz_ssi_dma_transfer;
}

Regards,
Biju
