The DMA descriptors used by the DW MMC block must be aligned to cacheline size, otherwise we are unable to properly flush/inval cache over them and we get data corruption. The reason I chose this approach of expanding the structure is because the driver allocates the descriptors in bulk. This approach does waste space by inserting slop inbetween the descriptors, but it makes access to the descriptors easy as the compiler does know the real size of the structure. It also makes cache operations easy, since the size of the structure is cache aligned and the structure start address is as well. Signed-off-by:
