I remember Felipe saying that MMCHS_HL_HWINFO is not reliable for some reason? But in any case it would be better IMHO if we query the HW for Master DMA support and if it is available we will use it. If it is really the case that MMCHS_HL_HWINFO is not reliable, then probably have a flag for the MMC/SD phandle saying that ti,master_dma_supported to indicate that it is capable has ADMA support also. -- Péter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
