There's no problem with s5pc110 since there's no DMA error. but new
SOC s5pc210 has some problem with DMA.
it occurs the DMA error and can't exit the loop. as it's decided to
use the 2.6.36 for s5pc210 we need to fix it ASAP.

If it takes more then 20msec it's really slow device. I think I give
the enough time to transfer 2KiB or 4KiB pagesize transfer at DMA.

I'll measure the real time, how much time taken at 2.6.35 kernel and
give exact number.

Now I implemented it as DMA polling method, but also implemented the
DMA interrupt codes. as it's new implementation. I don't expect it
can't merge at this windows. so send fixed codes.
