I came across this patch when I was looking at a pull request from
Sekhar for EDMA cleanups, and it made me look closer at the contents
of this file.

The include/linux/platform_data/ directory is meant to hold
platform_data definitions for drivers, and nothing more.
platform_data/edma.h also contains a whole bunch of interface
definitions for the driver. They do not belong there, and should be
moved to a different include file.

That also includes the above struct, because as far as I can tell it's
a runtime state structure, not something that is passed in with
platform data.

Can someone please clean this up? Thanks.
