No, I'm just getting real time now to work on the davinci-pcm dma engine conversion and cyclic dma support for edma. That driver is somewhat of a mess as it has some older platforms dependent on SRAM-based ping-pong buffering and that all need to be sorted during this. It is the only remaining blocker though for getting rid of the private API. -Matt

The davinci-pcm driver is the last in-kernel user of the private EDMA API. Once it has been converted to DMA Engine API the private EDMA API functionality can be folded into the EDMA DMA Engine driver and removed.
