> And I'm now questioning whether there is any real benefit from the DMA transferring at all, given the DMA bounce-buffer CPU read/write overhead. It looks to me that the whole purpose of the I2C DMA transferring is to move data from (to) some I2C device to a some device on the APB bus, bypassing the CPU. If that's is the case, then this patch may not really worth the effort and instead could only hurt the transferring performance. Please provide some performance results or correct me if I'm wrong.

And probably the last thought for today.. Could APB DMA access IRAM? If yes, then it becomes more interesting.
