Various DMA users call the dmaengine_slave_config() and expect it to

Add empty device_config function rather than patching all the places
which use dmaengine_slave_config().

.device_config is optional, Yes the dmaengine_slave_config() will check
and return error...

I think it would make sense to handle this in caller... (ignore
ENOSYS..) rather than add a dummy one

That's what I was trying to avoid -- patching all the places in kernel which
might fail. Why handle it in caller ?

And how many places would that be..? The xilinx driver using xilinx
dma right>

git grep indicates around 170 matches on dmaengine_slave_config. In my case, it is generic PCM DMA in sound/soc/soc-generic-dmaengine-pcm.c .

I had the patch around for a while indeed, it fell through the cracks.

This has to be more than 3 yrs old then!
