Ah, just checked again and my call to
dma_set_residue(txstate, mmp_pdma_residue(chan, cookie));
resolves to ...
static inline void dma_set_residue(struct dma_tx_state *state, u32 residue)
{
if (state)
state->residue = residue;
}
So there's no need to check for txstate != NULL on the caller side :)
Thanks,
Daniel
