This series adds support for scatter/gather DMA transfers via dma_vec
and dynamic descriptor chaining to the Freescale eDMA controller driver.

The first patch implements the .device_prep_peripheral_dma_vec() callback,
enabling the DMA engine to accept an array of dma_vec structures. This
callback supports both regular and cyclic transfer modes.

The second patch introduces dynamic scatter/gather chaining, which allows
multiple DMA descriptors to be linked together without stopping the channel.
This optimization eliminates idle periods when back-to-back transfers are
submitted, improving throughput and reducing latency. The implementation
carefully preserves cyclic transfer semantics and respects hardware
constraints on platforms with split register layouts.

I tested it on the i.MX93. The dynamic scatter/gather chaining should
work with other eDMA controller with split register layout.
