There are many devices where the device FIFO is memory mapped to the
GPMC bus on omaps, like TUSB, OneNAND, smc911x etc. I believe the
only reason why these have not been converted to the dmaengine is
the fact that dmaengine cannot configure the DMA hardware to do
autoincrement and loop over the device FIFO.

You can see an example of this in tusb_omap_dma_program() if you
look at the various dma_params entries and omap_set_dma_* functions.
