OK, I will try to clean them up. But since I don't want to export
internal implementation details, some of the magics will be left in
txx9dmac.c, perhaps.

Well, I'm not sure what do you mean...
The completion callback handler of the first descriptor should be
called _after_ the completion of the _last_ child of the descriptor.
Also I use desc_node for both dc->queue, dc->active_list and
txd.tx_list. So if I putted all children to dc->queue or
dc->active_list, txx9dmac_descriptor_complete() (or its caller) will
be more complex.
Or do you mean adding another list_head to maintain txd.tx_list? Or
something another at all?
