I can see that you applied these patches and they are present in
linux-next. But i feel
the order of patches is bad.
git log --oneline gives following:
879a0ec dmaengine: dw_dmac: Update documentation style comments for
dw_dma_platform_data
d0e35f3 dmaengine: dw_dmac: Enhance device tree support
4c4c30c ARM: SPEAr13xx: Pass DW DMAC platform data from DT
The last patch "ARM: SPEAr13xx: Pass DW DMAC platform data from DT" has
dependency on second patch.
The correct order would be:
4c4c30c ARM: SPEAr13xx: Pass DW DMAC platform data from DT
d0e35f3 dmaengine: dw_dmac: Enhance device tree support
879a0ec dmaengine: dw_dmac: Update documentation style comments for
dw_dma_platform_data
PS: We are looking at output of git log. Last patch (or first from
bottom) was applied first.
