This driver for Freescale MPC512x LocalPlus Bus FIFO (called SCLPC
in the Reference Manual) allows Direct Memory Access transfers
between RAM and peripheral devices on LocalPlus Bus.

Changes in v3:
 - resource usage in probe() is fixed;
 - driver methods are made safe against remove();
 - dma_request_slave_channel() is used to get DMA channel number from
    the device tree;
 - chip select number concerned with the DMA transaction is determined
    from 'localbus' device tree node information;
 - register set is described as a structure;
 - symbolic names are given to shift counts to keep magic numbers
    out of the code;
 - choosing values for LPBFIFO BPT (bytes per transfer) and DMA maxburst
    is improved, so DMA transfer size has increased for some cases;
 - device tree binding for LPBFIFO is documented;
 - Kconfig and Makefile are improved;
 - email address "a13xp0p0v88 at gmail.com" is changed to a more pleasant
    alias "alex.popov at linux.com".

Changes in v4:
 - the race condition is fixed;
 - plenty of style fixes are made;
 - devm_* functions and EPROBE_DEFER are used in probe().
