Hi,

> This patch adds support for the Freescale i.MX SDMA engine.
> 
> The SDMA engine is a scatter/gather DMA engine which is implemented
> as a seperate coprocessor. SDMA needs its own firmware which is
> requested using the standard request_firmware mechanism. The firmware
> has different entry points for each peripheral type, so drivers
> have to pass the peripheral type to the DMA engine which in turn
> picks the correct firmware entry point from a table contained in
> the firmware image itself.
> The original Freescale code also supports support for transfering
> data to the internal SRAM which needs different entry points to
> the firmware. Support for this is currently not implemented. Also,
> support for the ASRC (asymmetric sample rate converter) is skipped.
> 
> I took a very simple approach to implement dmaengine support. Only
> a single descriptor is statically assigned to a each channel. This
> means that transfers can't be queued up but only a single transfer
> is in progress. This simplifies implementation a lot and is sufficient
> for the usual device/memory transfers.

__devinit/__devexit is for hot-pluggable devices. I don't think the
SDMA controller is hot-pluggable, so __init/__exit could be used here.

see above.
