More looking at it, I found that might be omap_dma_running() from 
arch/arm/plat-omap/dma.c that needs correction. It already checks for LCD dma 
running for OMAP1610, but does nothing similiar for 1510. I have revisited 
http://focus.ti.com/lit/ug/spru674/spru674.pdf, but found no hint how to do 
that in a 1610 similiar way.

Thanks,
Janusz
