Tony,
Here is the first patch as promised.

From: Santosh Shilimkar <[email protected]>

    This patch set up a cmdline option for omap dma for masking the
    available channels. It is needed since the OMAP DMA is a system wide
    resource and can be used by another software apart from the kernel.

    To reserve the omap SDMA channels for kernel dma usage, use cmdline
    bootarg "omap_dma_reserve_ch=". The valid range is 1 to 32.
