Hi, what is the state of this patch?  I just noticed in patchwork it
is now listed as "Not applicable"?  The original broken-by-wordwrap
patch is listed as "Accepted"?

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-dmaengine/list/?submitter=178687&state=*

I found it has a bug handling dregs btw, I'll include a fix for that
in the next version or as a follow-on patch as appropriate.
