 In order to build the exynos kernel with CONFIG_ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM,

 the common dmaengine interfaces, we can remove the old code.

There's generic ASoC dmaengine code which should be used instead of open
coding this.  Lars-Peter Clausen and Lee Jones have been working on
making this a totally generic driver, right now it's a library.

Ok, I see. I'll drop this patch from my series then and will let someone
else handle this driver in 3.11. We can probably live without sound support
in 3.10 when running a multiplatform kernel, and it will keep working
for exynos-only kernels without the patch.

Can you have a look at the other three ASoC patches in the series? I think
it would still be useful to merge them.

Yeah, they looked fine - just waiting for me to do a patch run.  Should
get to it shortly.
