Re: [PATCH v2 1/5] dmaengine: add ep93xx DMA support

From: Rafal Prylowski
Date: Tue Nov 15 2011 - 10:09:24 EST


Hello.

During adaptation of my experimental ep93xx ide driver to the new dmaengine api,
I discovered two issues with ep93xx dma implementation:
1) Control register is incorrectly programmed for IDE (m2m_hw_setup),
probably copy-paste bug ;)
2) Kernel oops when trying to stop running transfers by calling
dmaengine_terminate_all(...) - caused by dereferencing empty list
in ep93xx_dma_get_active

Following is a patch, which solves these problems for me.

Regards,
Rafal Prylowski
