[PATCH 2/4] async_tx: fix multiple dependency submission

2008-02-12 Thread Dan Williams
Shrink struct dma_async_tx_descriptor and introduce async_tx_channel_switch to properly inject a channel switch interrupt in the descriptor stream. This simplifies the locking model as drivers no longer need to handle dma_async_tx_descriptor.lock. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

EFI currently calls set_memory_x() on addresses not in the direct mapping. This is problematic for several reasons: - The cpa code internally calls __pa on it which does not work for remapped addresses and will give some random result. In the EFI case EFI passes in a fixmap address which when
