[RFC] mmc: msm_sdcc: Use SPS BAM as DMA engine

From: Subhash Jadavani

On recent MSMs, ADM (Data Mover) HW is not present
which means existing SDCC driver can perform data
transfer in PIO (peripheral IO) mode only.
But PIO mode requires lot of CPU attention which
would mean consuming extra CPU MIPS.

As a replacement on these recent MSMs, there is
a new DMA HW engine named SPS-BAM (as part of
Smart Peripheral System of MSM) is added for
data movement between SDCC core and system memory.

This patch has done changes in existing MSM SDCC
driver for using SPS-BAM as DMA engine.

This patch is just for early review.

This patch is dependent on following 2 patches:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/586271/
