Re: [PATCH v7 2/3] dmaengine: ptdma: register PTDMA controller as a DMA resource

+     dma_dev->dst_addr_widths = PT_DMA_WIDTH(dma_get_mask(pt->dev));
+     dma_dev->directions = DMA_MEM_TO_MEM;
+     dma_dev->residue_granularity = DMA_RESIDUE_GRANULARITY_DESCRIPTOR;
+     dma_cap_set(DMA_MEMCPY, dma_dev->cap_mask);
+     dma_cap_set(DMA_INTERRUPT, dma_dev->cap_mask);
+     dma_cap_set(DMA_PRIVATE, dma_dev->cap_mask);
Why DMA_PRIVATE for a memcpy function?
This DMA engine is intended to use with AMD NTB IP and not for general purpose DMA, hence set the cap as DMA_PRIVATE.
Otherwise this DMA engine will be used for system DMA. Please correct me if my understanding is not right.


Also, I have implemented all of the comments for this patch except this. if this is fine, will send the next version for review.

Thanks,
Sanjay
