Hi Leo, Thanks for your review. About those two methods for DMA suspend that you have mentioned. We have a lot of the discussions in other DMA driver like DMA for Freescale PowerPC. Finally, we think the device which used the DMA transmission service should cancel the transmission service in its suspend. So DMA in suspend should be idle. Once the DMA in late_suspend is not be idle, we think some driver haven't canceled the DMA transmission. So maybe something is error when other driver in suspend. In the case, we should return failed to stop PM. DMA should not make a choice for other drivers(which used DMA) to force stop DMA transmission. Thanks.
