Real nice!

But can you split this in two patches: one that changes
drivers/dma/ste_dma40* and one sequel patch that changes
Documentation/* and arch/arm/boot/dts/* so I can merge them
out-of-order?

I am trying this development cycle to split changes to the
device trees and bindings off from the rest of the patches
becaused it caused me a mess last cycle.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
