Thanks for CC'ing me, though my current contact is
jaswinder.singh@xxxxxxxxxx or jassisinghbrar@xxxxxxxxx
Perhaps I need to change the email in all locations.

the drivers have come to rely upon.
Besides, I am not particularly a fan of the generic API. And IIRC,
neither is Ben Dooks, the designer of the
Samsung's DMA API.
