I think you did everything right, Ulf or Chris should really pick up this
patch. The one thing you could improve is the changeset text which you
wrote as "Utilise new s3c24xx-dma dmaengine driver for DMA ops." What we
really need here is an explanation of why we want this, e.g. what problems
are solved by it etc. I definitely really want this patch as part of 3.17
so we can enabled multiplatform for the platforms that use this driver.
You should also list the
Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd at arndb.de>
line under your "Signed-off-by" line.
