Subject: Re: [PATCH] dmaengine: stm32-dma: fix residue calculation in
 stm32-dma

Hello Vinod,

Just a gentle reminder, if you could take a moment to review this patch.
FYI, the patch has already been internally reviewed by Pierre Yves
mordret...
His sign-off is in the commit message.

Thanks,

Arnaud
