Formally patches in this series belong to your 3 trees: 1-3 and 7
(documentation, sent later separately) to DMA, 4 and 6 to ARM/shmobile, 5
to MMC. However, they can actually be safely applied in any order, as long
as per-tree patches are kept together. Even if the DMA portion is applied
last, the MMC driver will find DMA DT bindings in the DT, will request
channels, but no DMA channels will be found, then the driver will fall
back to PIO.

So, it's up to you to decide, whether to pull these patches separately via
respective trees, or have some of them acked and push all of them via one
tree.

Thanks
Guennadi
