Subject: Re: [PATCH 4/4] dma: mxs-dma: Don't use CLKGATE bits in CTRL0 to
 disable DMA channels

Hi,

[1] i tested the cmd:
  #dd if=/dev/mtd0 > /dev/null & dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 > /dev/null

The `dd if=/dev/mtd0 > /dev/null`  finished successfully;
but `dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 > /dev/null ` will failed.

[2] So i only tested the SD card with:
   #dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 > /dev/null

   it failed too.

[3] I think you have fixed the bug.
