Is this patch needed? The mxs-dma only has one user, the gpmi-nand in mx6q.
this patch makes the kernel built-in the mxs-dma, even the gpmi-nand
is not enabled.

Well, as the driver currently stands: yes, it is needed.

Without CONFIG_MXS_DMA, the GPMI driver cannot even be built.

But you have added "depend on MXS_DMA". So If you do not select the
mxs-dma, you can not see the
gpmi-nand.
that's why i think this patch is not needed.

This is why I thought that 'select MXS_DMA' was the way to go, but
according to the thread you pointed me at, it was Nacked by Shawn.
