I have applied this now.

Can you please send follow patches for these:
- don't recall if I pointed earlier, but can we use direct conversion for
  calculating convert_burst() and convert_buswidth(), latter one at least
  seem doable
- don't use devm_request_irq(). You have irq enabled and you have killed
  tasklet. This is too racy. You need to ensure no irqs can be generated before killing
  tasklets.
- use synchronize_irq() before killing tasklet

Thanks
