IMHO a DMA driver should not implement receive() and send() directly as
this involves generic code like flushing/invalidating caches,
synchronous waiting on descriptor status etc. This could be better
handled by dma-uclass code than repeating it in each driver.

I think a heavily simplified design of Linux's dmaengine would help. For
instance the driver interface could be modelled with prepare_cyclic(),
prepare_memcpy() and status(). The dma-uclass can then provide an
interface for those functions as well as additional wrapper functions
like dma_is_complete(), dma_sync_wait(), dma_receive() or dma_send().

Regardless of the design, I'd like to have at least separate functions
for preparing the buffers and polling the descriptor. For instance I
have a DMA-capable NAND controller, where the DMA transfer is only
started by writing some HW registers. This must happen between preparing
the buffers and DMA descriptors and polling the descriptors until the
transaction has finished.

Could you do that?
