I may also take a look to speed it up. Yet, putting that clock
aside, how about this patch then? I think we don't need to wait
for that clock patch in order to announce that we support this
now on a specific SoC but can just treat it as a new feature of
a DMA controller, which sounds quite plausible to me since the
ADMA module is now being disabled in all dts files of existing
SoCs -- There have to be some local changes in any way so as to
test it with the mainline code.
