I understand your concern, I'm often in the same position in many areas,
including this driver (I'm not a maintainer of slave DMA subsystem).

Though let's face the issues we have with the series:
- stuff regarding to style and alike (would be fixed in a day)
- DTS naming and conventions, this is apparently a big area, where I
might share opinion, but can't decide for
- last word by the subsystem maintainer
