Do you know that for sure? I certainly don't. This is a licensable, 
self-contained DMA controller IP with no relationship whatsoever to any 
particular CPU ISA - our other system IP products have turned up in the 
wild paired with non-Arm CPUs, so I don't see any reason that DMA-350 
wouldn't either.

Would you propose making all the DesignWare drivers depend on ARC 
because those happen to come from the same company too? ;)

Thanks,
Robin.
