[alsa-devel] [PATCH 27/51] DMA-API: provide a helper to setup DMA masks

[Russell King]

Many drivers contain code such as:

	dev->dma_mask = &dev->coherent_dma_mask;
	dev->coherent_dma_mask = MASK;

Let's move this pattern out of drivers and have the DMA API provide a
helper for it.  This helper uses dma_set_mask_and_coherent() to allow
platform issues to be properly dealt with via dma_set_mask()/
dma_is_supported().
