Oh, I suppose this is just for rivers/misc/fuse/tegra/fuse-tegra20.c to
use it, not for arbitrary clients, so this is probably OK.

Any reason not to move all the DMA-related fuse-reading code into
fuse-tegra20.c instead? After this series, is there code left in
arch/arm/mach-tegra which will still need to call into the fuse-reading
code and hence requires tegra_apb_readl_using_dma() to exist?
