Looks good - if you need to resend then:

there's a typo here but no need to resend just for that.

I'd like to see some review from both Morimoto-san as we should convert
fsi over to this too, Vinod I guess you're also pretty much happy given
your comments on the previous version?

For the non-cyclic DMAs the idea of emulating at the dmaengine layer
does seem very sensible but if that's hard then having the code at the
ASoC level and pushing it down later seems fine.  We do have several
platforms with non-cyclic DMA so it's a general need.
