Does anyone know when the BeagleBone support is going to be fixed in mainline ?

I've just tried the latest linux-next git, and no joy.

However, Matt's edma-dmaengine-am33xx-v5 branch on github seems to be working:-

Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

Are we just waiting for Matt's DMA stuff to be accepted ?
