davinci: mmc: pass number of SG segments as platform data
On some platforms like DM355, the number of EDMA parameter slots available for EDMA_SLOT_ANY usage are few. In such cases, if MMC/SD uses 16 slots for each instance of MMC controller, then the number of slots available for other modules will be very few. By passing the number of EDMA slots to be used in MMC driver from platform data, EDMA slots available for other purposes can be controlled. Most of the platforms will not use this platform data variable. But on DM355, as the number of EDMA resources available is limited, the number of scatter- gather segments used inside the MMC driver can be 8 (passed as platform data) instead of 16. On DM355, when the number of scatter-gather segments was reduced to 8, I saw a performance difference of about 0.25-0.4 Mbytes/sec during write. Read performance variations were negligible.
