[PATCH v3 08/34] dmaengine: imx-dma: flip per-chan tasklet to dmaengine BH

Allen Pais allen.lkml at gmail.com
Mon Aug 10 11:09:09 PDT 2026


Replace the per-channel tasklet with the shared dmaengine BH helper.
The handler continues to run in softirq context while dmaengine owns
the common scheduling and teardown mechanism.
