A new driver for cyclic support only or on top of > Russell's changes? I am referring the Nvidia Tegra's APB dma driver. This will be completely new driver based on dmaengine. We have old dma driver under mach-tegra/dma.c which has tegra specific apis. Want to move this driver to generic dmaengine based api. Russell is working on Omap's dma driver. These are completely independent driver.
