From: Martin Sperl <kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The original patch contained 3 dma channels that were masked out. These - as far as research and discussions show - are a artefacts remaining from the downstream legacy dma-api. Right now down-stream still includes a legacy api used only in a single (downstream only) driver (bcm2708_fb) that requires 2D DMA for speedup (DMA-channel 0). Formerly the sd-card support driver also was using this legacy api (DMA-channel 2), but since has been moved over to use dmaengine directly. The DMA-channel 3 is already masked out in the devicetree in the default property "brcm,dma-channel-mask = <0x7f35>;" So we can remove the whole masking of DMA channels.
