Well we don't want to export the dmtimer functions to drivers..But
we now have the PWM driver that can be already used for most of the
ir-rx51.c.

Yup please take a look at thread "[PATCH 0/3] pwm: omap: Add PWM support
using dual-mode timers". Chances are we still need to set up the dmtimer
code to provide also irqchip functions. That way ir-rx51.c can just do
request_irq on the selected dmtimer for interrupts.

Yeah those parts should be already doable with the PWM timer code AFAIK.

Tony
