I had a communication with Russell on another change thread and
understand that some more work need to be done in virt_chan to support
cyclic one.

I want to have the cyclic dma support in my driver so I want to go on
following steps:
1. I will post the patch for tegra dma which will not use the virt_dma
so that my driver will be independent of Russel's change.
which driver? A new driver for cyclic support only or on top of
Russell's changes?

I am referring the Nvidia Tegra's APB dma driver. This will be completely new driver based on dmaengine. We have old dma driver under mach-tegra/dma.c which has tegra specific apis. Want to move this driver to generic dmaengine based api.

Russell is working on Omap's dma driver.
These are completely independent driver.
