Make sure dma_ops are set, to be later used by the Ethernet driver.

When compile-testing with f NO_DMA=y:

    drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fman/mac.c: In function
‘dpaa_eth_add_device’:
    drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fman/mac.c:626: error: implicit
declaration of function ‘set_dma_ops’

Reverting commit 5567e989198b5a8d fixes this regression in v4.12-rc7.

Why is this change needed?
There's no single other call to the DMA API in this file?

If it's really needed, can't set_dma_ops() be called from the driver that
needs it, cfr. your other patch "[PATCH 2/2] dpaa_eth: reuse the dma_ops
provided by the FMan MAC device"?

Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

We're setting here the dma_ops that are later used in the other driver/patch.
The problem is we now depend upon DMA but do not explicitly declare it:

<<Code that depends on the dma-mapping API needs to set 'depends on HAS_DMA'
in its Kconfig>>

I'll need to add this to the FMan driver Kconfig.

Sure. But only if the driver really uses DMA.
I can stick a set_dma_ops() call in whatever driver, but that doesn't
mean it will
suddenly use DMA.
Why does the FMan driver suddenly has a dependency on DMA, if it doesn't
use DMA?

> I'll need to add this to the FMan driver Kconfig.

Why does the FMan driver need this?
Why can't his call be done in the driver that uses the DMA APIO?

The DPAA Ethernet driver makes use of DMA ops. It used to get them from
an API call (arch_setup_dma_ops) that was not exported. The DPAA Ethernet
that makes use of the FMan devices does not get the dma_ops as it does not
probe neither as an OF platform device nor thorough ACPI. It probes as a
platform device based on information prepared by the FMan driver. What the
FMan change [1] does is supplement the information shared with the Ethernet
driver with the dma_ops that the FMan driver gets during OF probing. There
are no scenarios one can use the DPAA drivers with NO_DMA, as far as I know.

For general info on the DPAA drivers please refer to the documentation
found in Documentation/networking/dpaa.txt. For the probing of the Ethernet
driver see change [2] and dpaa_eth_add_device() in fsl/fman, dpaa_eth_probe()
in dpaa_eth.
