What is your rationale here ? (I have missed patch 0 it seems).

dma_supported() was supposed to be pretty much a "const" function
simply informing whether a given setup is possible. Having it perform
an actual switch of ops seems to be pushing it...

What if a driver wants to test various dma masks and then pick one ?

Where does the API documents that if a driver calls dma_supported() it
then *must* set the corresponding mask and use that ?

I don't like a function that is a "boolean query" like this one to have
such a major side effect.

>From an API standpoint, dma_set_mask() is when the mask is established,
and thus when the ops switch should happen.

Ben.
