I'm fine with the basic idea.  But based on rmk's and your 
subsequent comments, please add some comments to the driver in this patch 
that encapsulates what needs to be done to get DMA working again properly, 
including the idle mode switching, in the unlikely event that someone will 
try to get that working again.
