Drew found "CONFIG_DMA_GLOBAL_POOL=y causes ADMA buffer alloc to fail"
the log looks like:
mmc0: Unable to allocate ADMA buffers - falling back to standard DMA
The logic is: generic riscv defconfig selects ARCH_RENESAS then
ARCH_R9A07G043 which selects DMA_GLOBAL_POOL, which assumes all
non-dma-coherent riscv platforms have a dma global pool, this assumption
seems not correct. And I believe DMA_GLOBAL_POOL should not be
selected by ARCH_SOCFAMILIY, instead, only ARCH under some specific
conditions can select it globaly, for example NOMMU ARM and so on,
because it's designed for special cases such as "nommu cases where
non-cacheable memory lives in a fixed place in the physical address
map" as pointed out by Robin.
Fix the issue by making ARCH_R9A07G043 (riscv version) depend on
NONPORTABLE, thus generic defconfig won't select ARCH_R9A07G043 by
default. And even for random config case, there will be less debug
effort once we see NONPORTABLE is enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
