Sorry i don't understand clearly what you said.

I checked rpi_arm64_defconfig history. it's unified config for RPi3/RPI4.
As i know, RPi3 doesn't support SDMA mode. So i don't have a plan to apply rpi_arm64_defconfig.
(If i understood wrong, let me know,plz.)

I have tested SDMA mode With rpi_4_defconfig / rpi_4_32b_defconfig.
Test Environment
- Target : RPI4 (1G/2G/4G) target
- config : rpi_4_defconfig / rpi_4_32b_defconfig

Read/write some files from Sd-card.
Read/write performance is increased than before.

I will resend with rpi_4_defconfig, except rpi_arm64_defconfig.
