Add support for HPB-DMAC found in Renesas R-Car SoCs, using 'shdma-base' DMA
driver framework.

Based on the original patch by Phil Edworthy <phil.edwor...@renesas.com>.

Signed-off-by: Max Filippov <max.filip...@cogentembedded.com>
[Sergei: removed useless #include, sorted #include's, fixed HPB_DMA_TCR_MAX,
fixed formats and removed line breaks in the dev_dbg() calls, rephrased and
added IRQ # to the shdma_request_irq() failure message, added MODULE_AUTHOR(),
removed '__init'/'__exit' annotations from the probe()/remove() methods, removed
'__initdata' annotation from 'hpb_dmae_driver', fixed guard macro name in the
header file, fixed #define ASYNCRSTR_ASRST20, added #define ASYNCRSTR_ASRST24,
added the necessary runtime PM calls to the probe() and remove() methods,
handled errors returned by dma_async_device_register(), beautified comments
and #define's.]

A suggestion for an incremental patch - you might want to initialise the
max_xfer_len field like

        schan->max_xfer_len = 64 * 1024 * 1024 - 1;

IIRC, the HPB-DMAC's maximum transfer length is 16 MiB, without -1. You probably mixed it with LBSC-DMAC which is indeed capable of 64 MiB.

because if it isn't initialised your max transfer length will be 4k,
which will hurt your performance. I think you should get a better
throughput after that

   OK, note taken. We'll look into it.

WBR, Sergei
