AFAIK we should just remove DMA support from the drivers above.
Nobody seems to be interested in doing anything about them.

OK so Aaro picked this one.

I'll update this one. FYI, I already have some work-in-progress
MUSB DMA patches that allow building in all the MUSB DMA glue
layers. I just need to finish that series for v3.20:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap.git/log/?h=musb-dma-2014-11-25-v2

So converting tusb6010 over to the dmaengine API would be the
next logical step after that series. Probably not going to
happen before v3.21 though..

Tony
