Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.infradead.org/users/vkoul/slave-dma
Pull slave-dmaengine updates from Vinod Koul: - New driver for Qcom bam dma - New driver for RCAR peri-peri - New driver for FSL eDMA - Various odd fixes and updates thru the subsystem * 'for-linus' of git://git.infradead.org/users/vkoul/slave-dma: (29 commits) dmaengine: add Qualcomm BAM dma driver shdma: add R-Car Audio DMAC peri peri driver dmaengine: sirf: enable generic dt binding for dma channels dma: omap-dma: Implement device_slave_caps callback dmaengine: qcom_bam_dma: Add device tree binding dma: dw: Add suspend and resume handling for PCI mode DW_DMAC. dma: dw: allocate memory in two stages in probe Add new line to test result strings produced in verbose mode dmaengine: pch_dma: use tasklet_kill in teardown dmaengine: at_hdmac: use tasklet_kill in teardown dma: cppi41: start tear down only if channel is busy usb: musb: musb_cppi41: Dont reprogram DMA if tear down is initiated dmaengine: s3c24xx-dma: make phy->irq signed for error handling dma: imx-dma: Add missing module owner field dma: imx-dma: Replace printk with dev_* dma: fsl-edma: fix static checker warning of NULL dereference dma: Remove comment about embedding dma_slave_config into custom structs dma: mmp_tdma: move to generic device tree binding dma: mmp_pdma: add IRQF_SHARED when request irq dma: edma: Fix memory leak in edma_prep_dma_cyclic() ...
