No. dma_mask is a pointer to u64. You need it stored in some variable. But, really, we shouldn't be initializing dma masks in drivers at all. That's supposed to come from the point where devices are created - and in the case of DMA engine stuff, its not the peripheral device structures which are doing DMA (they're DMA-incapable) - they rely on the services of a separate IP to perform DMA on their behalf. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
