VCHIQ bulk transfers are what most people call DMA transfers. The CPU sends a list of physical addresses to the VideoCore which then access the memory directly without the need for CPU interaction. With this setup we call the CPU the "slave" and the VideoCore the "master". There seems to be an option to switch roles in vchiq. Which nobody is using nor is properly implemented. So we get rid of the "is_master == 1" option, and all the related code.

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.
