I suspect you intended to use the _noirq version like the changelog
says?

Also, I believe it was already suggested by Nishanth, but the late/early
callbacks are probably more appropriate here than the noirq callbacks.
Unless there's a *really* good reason to use the noirq callbacks, they
should be avoided.

That being said, I wonder if the whole approach here is the right one.
I know you're basing your stuff on some TI tree, but that doesn't make
it the right way (usually, it's the opposite, but I digress...)  ;)

IMO, EDMA should be done like we currently do I2C and not implement
suspend/resume at all.  Instead, the driver should do runtime PM done on
a per xfer basis.  Then when suspend comes along, all that needs to be
done is ensure all in-flight xfers are done, then runtime PM will kick
in.
