[PATCH V4 1/2] of: Add generic device tree DMA helpers

2012-09-13 Thread Jon Hunter
This is based upon the work by Benoit Cousson [1] and Nicolas Ferre [2] to add some basic helpers to retrieve a DMA controller device_node and the DMA request/channel information. Aim of DMA helpers - The purpose of device-tree is to describe the capabilites of the hardware. Thinking about DMA c
