[PATCH v2 00/64] dmaengine: migrate channel tasklets to WQ_BH

[Allen Pais]

Hi Arnd, Vinod and Frank,

This series moves DMAengine client completion bottom halves from private
tasklets to a common per-channel API backed by WQ_BH.

The first patch introduces the dma_chan_*_bh() API with a tasklet backend
and converts virt-dma to it. This separates the driver-facing API from its
implementation without changing callback context.

The second patch switches that backend to a dedicated WQ_BH | WQ_PERCPU
workqueue. WQ_BH keeps callbacks in softirq context, while the common API
centralizes initialization, scheduling, and synchronization. The
workqueue helpers remain internal to DMAengine, and dma_chan_kill_bh()
drains scheduled callbacks to preserve tasklet_kill() semantics.

The remaining patches convert driver-owned channel completion tasklets
and update virt-dma teardown paths. Tasklets used for controller-level
processing, recovery, or other non-client-callback work are deliberately
left alone because the appropriate replacement may differ by driver.

As agreed in the RFC discussion, selecting hardirq callback delivery is a
separate API change and is not part of this series.

Earlier discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260108080332.2341725-1-allen.lkml@xxxxxxxxx/

Changes since RFC v1:
- split the tasklet-backed channel API from the WQ_BH backend change
- keep the low-level workqueue helpers private to DMAengine
- preserve tasklet teardown semantics by draining scheduled BH work
- convert the remaining driver client-completion tasklets
- retain unrelated controller and recovery tasklets
- route SF-PDMA terminal errors through virt-dma completion handling
- add missing callback synchronization and teardown handling
- fix the build failures reported by the kernel test robot
- rebase onto the current Linus tree

Testing:
- x86_64 allmodconfig
- make -j$(nproc) W=1 drivers/dma/
- scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict --git origin/master..HEAD
- git diff --check origin/master..HEAD
