[PATCH] USB: omap_udc: DMA: Don't enable burst 4 mode

From: Aaro Koskinen

Commit 65111084c63d7 ("USB: more omap_udc updates (dma and omap1710)")
added setting for DMA burst 4 mode. But I think this should be undone for
two reasons:

- It breaks DMA on 15xx boards - transfers just silently stall.

- On newer OMAP1 boards, like Nokia 770 (omap1710), there is no measurable
performance impact when testing TCP throughput with g_ether with large
15000 byte MTU size.

It's also worth noting that when the original change was made, the
OMAP_DMA_DATA_BURST_4 handling in arch/arm/plat-omap/dma.c was broken, and
actually resulted in the same as the OMAP_DMA_DATA_BURST_DIS i.e. burst
disabled. This was fixed not until a couple kernel releases later in an
unrelated commit 1a8bfa1eb998a ("[ARM] 3142/1: OMAP 2/5: Update files
common to omap1 and omap2").

So based on this it seems there was never really a very good reason to
enable this burst mode in omap_udc, so remove it now to allow 15xx DMA
to work again (it provides 2x throughput compared to PIO mode).
