The above commit is causing the following build error for 32-bit ARM 
with multi_v7_defconfig ...

drivers/dma/at_hdmac.c: In function ‘atc_config’:
drivers/dma/at_hdmac.c:1323:34: warning: unused variable ‘atslave’ 
[-Wunused-variable]
  1323 |         struct at_dma_slave     *atslave;
       |                                  ^~~~~~~
drivers/dma/at_hdmac.c: In function ‘atc_free_chan_resources’:
drivers/dma/at_hdmac.c:1583:9: error: ‘atslave’ undeclared (first use in 
this function)
  1583 |         atslave = chan->private;
       |         ^~~~~~~


This is also seen with linux-5.15.y and linux-6.1.y branches. 
Linux-6.6.y and newer are building fine.

Thanks
Jon

Ah, looks like the patch fuzz caused the variable to be declared in the
wrong function, let me go fix that up...
