Hi Magnus,

Thank you for the patch.

I'd rather let desc->chcr store the channel-specific configuration as 
documented in the rcar_dmac_desc structure kerneldoc and set the CAIE flag at 
the start of the rcar_dmac_chan_start_xfer() function with

        u32 chcr = desc->chcr | RCAR_DMACHCR_CAIE;

How about setting the CAE flag unconditionally at the beginning of the 
function with

        u32 mask = RCAR_DMACHCR_CAE | RCAR_DMACHCR_DSE | RCAR_DMACHCR_TE;

Don't you also need to act on the CAE flag being set ? Otherwise the transfer 
will just hang.
