Hi Lee,

Ok, I'll add a comment in v2.

Ok, got it now. I'll do this in v2.

I guess you've had a look at [PATCH 5/8] pwm: stm32: add capture
support. Are you talking about passing phys_base + TIM_DMAR ?

If this is the case, I'd prefer to keep phys base only if you don't
mind, and handle TIM_DMAR offset in pwm driver. This way, all dma slave
config is kept locally at one place.
Or do you mean something else ?

Maybe I can add a comment here about this ?
Something like:
/* phys_base to be used by child driver, e.g. DMA burst mode */

Please advise,
Thanks,
Fabrice
