By enabling dual fifo mode, it would allow SSI enter a better performance
to transimit/receive data without occasional hardware underrun/overrun.

[ Passed compile-test with mpc85xx_defconfig ]

Have you measured any real performance gain with this patch?  I 
considered adding dual-FIFO support when I originally wrote this driver, 
but it didn't appear to have any real benefit, but it used twice as many 
DMA channels.

I'm concerned that this is another patch that just enables a useless 
feature.

Without dual fifo support,  handware underrun would occasionally occur and then two audio channels would physically swap. This could be easily reproduced in low bus frequency situation, while it would be better if we enable dual fifo.
