Probably rephrasing the commit message to say that when the mask is NULL it
means that the caller does not care about the capabilities of the dma device
thus return with true in such a case.
We could also drop this patch and in private_candidate() :
- if (!__dma_device_satisfies_mask(dev, mask)) {
+ if (mask && !__dma_device_satisfies_mask(dev, mask)) {
pr_debug("%s: wrong capabilities\n", __func__);
return NULL;
}

Or set DMA_SLAVE only in dma_request_chan()? What happens if we have cases
when we are able to request channel for memcpy via dma_request_chan()
(dedicated memcpy channel/DMA engine?) in that case we will have the SLAVE
set, but not MEMCPY, or any other variation we do not know yet?
