Hi Maxime,

The Allwinner A31 has a 16 channels DMA controller that it shares with the
newer A23. Although sharing some similarities with the DMA controller of the
older Allwinner SoCs, it's significantly different, I don't expect it to be
possible to share the driver for these two.

The A31 Controller is able to memory-to-memory or memory-to-device transfers on
the 16 channels in parallel.

I'm slightly confused. The binding listed a single unnamed clock (the
AHB clock). What is going on here?

The device itself needs only a single clock to work...

+       if (ret) {

+               return ret;
+       }

Why do we need to reparent the mux?

... but will function only if this clock is derived from PLL6.
