However, when I grep for davinci_request_dma, the only places I can find it are in davinci_pcm_dma_request itself!

Either I'm missing something, or this code wouldn't even compile. I would appreciate any help in understanding this.
It was discovered a while ago that the code depends on an unmerged set of DMA API updates. See this thread for more info:

To be honest, I had expected that the required updates would have been merged by now but it seems not. CCing the DaVinci list - I don't know what the status is on merging the new DMA API?
