[PATCH v3 58/59] dmaengine: Add a warning for drivers not using the generic slave caps retrieval

From: Maxime Ripard
Date: Wed Oct 22 2014 - 11:52:36 EST


For the slave caps retrieval to be really useful, most drivers need to
implement it.

Hence, we need to be slightly more aggressive, and trigger a warning at
registration time for drivers that don't fill their caps infos in order to
encourage them to implement it.
