I am wondering if any progress has been made in getting Device Tree 
Overlays (via uBoot) to correctly allow DMA to be used on the SPI devices.  
I have not seen any *recent* mention of this issue.  Referring to these 
previous articles:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/beagleboard/spi$20dma%7Csort:date/beagleboard/YV5qDHTgtBQ/MAI1s-PUAQAJ

and

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/beagleboard/spi$20dma%7Csort:date/beagleboard/_22bW7vMkW0/rn01nfvyBQAJ

It is suggested that should you want to use DMA with SPI, enable the SPI in 
the main DTB (*sigh*).  Is this still the case?  If so, does it even make 
sense to use DT Overlays for any other resources I am using (GPIO's for 
example)?  Since I'm hacking up the main DTB anyway, why not just add 
everything I need there and not worry about the uBoot DT Overlays at all?

Thanks so much for any insight anyone may have into this.

Regards,
John
