Before that nommu sh builds provided a DMA mapping implementation
that even worked for the streaming side (dma_map_*), but would corrupt
data if you used dma_alloc_coherent memory to communicate with the
device.

I don't think dma_dev can be NULL right now. dma_dev is assigned here:

if (spi->master->dev.parent->dma_mask) {
struct device *dev = spi->master->dev.parent;

host->dma_dev = dev;

but for any OF or real bus device dma_mask never is zero (it actually is
a pointer), and the value of it also is initialized to 32-bit by default,
making this effectively an "if (1) {". The driver needs some way to
communicate if a given device actually is DMA capable or not. Or is that
purely a factor of the platform which would be a little strange.

In which case we should do something like:


diff --git a/drivers/mmc/host/mmc_spi.c b/drivers/mmc/host/mmc_spi.c
index 39bb1e30c2d722..3b0cc9a70e6432 100644

+ if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HAS_DMA)) {
struct device *dev = spi->master->dev.parent;

host->dma_dev = dev;
