[PATCH 0/2] dma: imx-sdma: Modify SDMA's remove operation

[Vignesh Raman]

This is a patch set which contains two patches which modify's sdma_remove 
operation and add tasklet_kill in sdma_remove function.

Vignesh Raman (2):
  dma: imx-sdma: use module_platform_driver for SDMA driver
  dma: imx-sdma: Adding tasklet_kill() in sdma_remove function.

[PATCH 1/2] dma: imx-sdma: use module_platform_driver for SDMA driver

[Vignesh Raman]

Currently there is no module_exit declared in SDMA driver, so that once
sdma module is inserted, it's shown with permanent attribute by lsmod,
and it can't be removed.
Use module_platform_driver to register/unregister SDMA driver and modify
SDMA's remove operation, to make SDMA driver possible to be removed.

I'm not clear with your question. Are you asking about the unregister
SDMA driver function? It is done by dma_async_device_unregister.

Driver already uses module_platform_driver, so I dont see what information
the last two lines are trying to convey.

Patch needs to talk about what is done in current patch

I missed some changes in Jiada's patch while merging to mainline kernel.
I will update and send the latest version.

[PATCH 2/2] dma: imx-sdma: Adding tasklet_kill() in sdma_remove function.

[Vignesh Raman]

Several dma drivers calls tasklet_kill() in remove function. This is missing in
imx driver, so adding tasklet_kill() in sdma_remove function.

This is done because all running tasklets should be killed on remove.

I should have mentioned in the Changelog but missed it, sorry about
that. I will add it and send updated version.
