[PATCH 1/2] dmaengine: dw-edma: Add interrupt-emulation hooks

From: Koichiro Den

Date: Sun Feb 15 2026 - 10:22:33 EST


DesignWare eDMA instances support "interrupt emulation", where a
software write can assert the IRQ line without setting the normal
DONE/ABORT status bits.

Introduce core callbacks needed to support this feature:

- .ack_emulated_irq(): core-specific sequence to deassert an emulated
IRQ
- .db_offset(): offset from the DMA register base that is suitable as a
host-writable doorbell target for interrupt emulation

Implement both hooks for the v0 register map. For dw-hdma-v0, provide a
stub .db_offset() returning ~0 until the correct offset is known.

The next patch wires these hooks into the dw-edma IRQ path and exports
the doorbell resources to platform users.
