[alsa-devel] Fwd: [PATCH 1/1] SPI : spi-pxa2xx : fix spi init of WM510205 codec via ACPI (resend)

[Christian Hartmann]

Hi,

I had already asked about the pxa2xx and the PIO mode (aka no DMA
channels available).
If I remember correctly, it does not need DMA at all.

Otherwise I see later in dmesg the DesignWare DMA Controller (2x) à 8 channels.

Is the pxa2xx not using the DMA mode cause the Designware controllers
are initialized later??
Or has this nothing to do with it at all ? Still interested...

snip of dmesg:
