_ldst_memtodev and _ldst_devtomem are similar, but they were even more
similar before my patch.  Do I really have to refactor existing code
to get my patch applied?  I'm not trying to take over maintainership
of the pl330.c driver.

I just copied that behavior from the existing _bursts() function.  I
guess the original author's idea was returning a big offset would
result in a dry run failure due to exceeding the maximum buffer size.
I do agree an error would be better, although it would require
refactoring since the return values from _bursts and _dregs are not
checked for errors, they just blindly add the return value to the
offset.

I don't have any experience with the PL330_QUIRK_BROKEN_NO_FLUSHP
hardware, or knowledge of how it (mis)behaves.  So I just tried to
maintain the existing behavior as much as possible.  The old code
advertised the max burst length as 1 with PL330_QUIRK_BROKEN_NO_FLUSHP
hardware, and programmed the pl330 to respond only to burst requests
(and of course the old code never did any peripheral bursts longer
than 1).  I actually don't mind changing the behavior of
PL330_QUIRK_BROKEN_NO_FLUSHP but it seems like someone with more
knowledge of that hardware should be involved, like the rock-chips.com
guys who introduced it in commit
271e1b86e69140fe65718ae8a264284c46d3129d ,

Ok, I'll make a little helper function.
