Re: [PATCH 0/5] rapidio: adding memory mapping IO support and misc fixes

Hi Gerhard, 

Yes I am sure, I know I chosen a different board than I use. I wanted to
show that this compilation problem is not influenced by our e500
patches. So I did the test on the pristine 2.6.29.1 kernel without any
external patches applied, and the problem is exactly the same when the
rionet is compiled for E500 with our patches. 

And anyway the dma_client structure is defined in the 2.6.28, but not in
the 2.6.29, so it looks to me that a rionet dma support is written for
older kernel. 

Here is the Linus tree and async_tx tree merge tree months ago
and info is:
 dmaengine: kill struct dma_client and supporting infrastructure
