When setting up RAID array on several NVMe disks we observed that
sba_alloc_request() start failing (due to no free requests left)
and RAID array setup becomes very slow.
To improve performance, we do mbox channel peek when we have
no free requests. This improves performance of RAID array setup
because mbox requests that were completed but not processed by
mbox completion worker will be processed immediately by mbox
channel peek.

We should allocate DMA channel resources before registering the
DMA device in sba_probe() because we can get DMA request soon
after registering the DMA device. If DMA channel resources are
not allocated before first DMA request then SBA-RAID driver will
crash.

The pending sba_request list can become very long in real-life usage
(e.g. setting up RAID array) which can cause sba_issue_pending() to
run for long duration.
This patch adds common sba_process_deferred_requests() to process
few completed and pending requests so that it finishes in short
duration. We use this common sba_process_deferred_requests() in
both sba_issue_pending() and sba_receive_message().

Currently, we have only 1024 free sba_request created
by sba_prealloc_channel_resources(). This is too low
and the prep_xxx() callbacks start failing more often
at time of RAID array setup over NVMe disks.
This patch sets number of free sba_request created by
sba_prealloc_channel_resources() to be:
<number_of_mailbox_channels> x 8192
Due to above, we will have sufficient number of free
sba_request and prep_xxx() callbacks failing is very
unlikely.

Currently, we cannot have any arbitrary number of free sba_request
because sba_prealloc_channel_resources() allocates an array of
sba_request using devm_kcalloc() and kcalloc() cannot provide
memory beyond certain size.
This patch removes "reqs" (sba_request array) from sba_device
and makes "cmds" as variable array (instead of pointer) in
sba_request. This helps sba_prealloc_channel_resources() to
allocate sba_request and associated SBA command in one allocation
which in-turn allows arbitrary number of free sba_request.

The reqs_free_count member of sba_device is not used anywhere
hence no point in tracking number of free sba_request.

Both resp and resp_dma are redundant in sba_request because
resp is unused and resp_dma carries same information present
in tx.phys of sba_request. This patch removes both resp and

This patch merges sba_request state and fence into common
sba_request flags. The sba_request flags not only saves
memory but it can also be extended in-future without adding
new members.
We also make each sba_request state as separate bit in
sba_request flags to help debugging situations where a
sba_request is accidently in two states.

The Broadcom stream buffer accelerator (SBA) provides offloading
capabilities for RAID operations. This SBA offload engine is
accessible via Broadcom SoC specific ring manager.
This patch adds Broadcom SBA RAID driver which provides one
DMA device with RAID capabilities using one or more Broadcom
SoC specific ring manager channels. The SBA RAID driver in its
current shape implements memcpy, xor, and pq operations.
