Yes we have ... As Tomasz has already written the hardware itself is very much
different. It's only the concept of mapping virtual channels to physical
channels that is somehow similar.
It seems my patch message is lacking in making this clearer ;-) .

Hmm, I don't understand meaning of this sentence. Is it a suggestion to change
anything?

hmm, the config pointer is dereferenced here and its data thus copyied into
s3cchan->cfg, so no reference to the origial config pointer is kept.

hmm ... I'm not sure what a valid handling would be for this.
The interrupt is only asserted when a transfer is completed - there are no
other interrupt-triggers. But when phy->serving is NULL, this also means that
the clock of the channel is disabled at this time. So this _should_ never
happen.
And as written above, the interrupt is only triggered when a transfer was
completed and the channel is idle again, so if there is no virtual channel
being served, there is nothing else to do.
Thanks
Heiko
