My point was merely to inform you of the change in case you had missed it :-)

If I'm not mistaken your hw_req field is equivalent to the chan_id field in 
the above patch.

There's indeed an additional sh_dmae_set_slave() call in your filter, which 
feels a bit out of place. I was just wondering whether it wouldn't be possible 
to consolidate the code with the above patch.

I don't know, but I will need something similar soon, so I'll revive the 
discussion.
