Hello.

Some of the comments about my earlier EDMA patches touched on issues
in that programming interface, like:

 - The single call to allocate DMA resources is overly complex.

 - Its programming model doesn't match the hardware well:  talking
   about master vs. slave, not channels and parameter RAM; confusing
   those two resource types (especially when allocating); etc.

 - Since the calls used a "davinci_" prefix, they wouldn't be very
   appropriate for the DMA in the OMAP-L137 chip.

We were going to move the generic part of arch/arm/mach-davinci/dma.c (alomg with other common code b/w so called OMAP-L1x and DaVinci) to arch/arm/plat-davinci/ but the rename seems reasonable anyway.
