Sorry for asking a trivial question - looking into dma_configure() I see that
PCI is used in the start and the end of the API.
In the end part pci_put_host_bridge_device() is called.
So are two bus callbacks something like 'dma_config_start' &
'dma_config_end'

will be required where the former one will return "dma_dev"?
I'd just use dma_configure as the callback.
This would be a decent stuff.
Yes, the PCI version should end up looking a lot like the old 
pci_dma_configure() used to, before everything got pulled together.

Currently the of_dma_configure and acpi_dma_configure are only used
for PCI anyway, as no one else sets a non-NULL dma dev.
My understanding is that even the platform bus uses the of_dma_configure
and probably acpi_dma_configure too. So platform bus may also need the
callback implemented. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong.
Indeed, platform and AMBA will want an implementation to dispatch 
between {of,acpi}_dma_configre() per the current logic. Host1x doesn't 
seem to care about ACPI so probably wants its own just calling 
of_dma_configure().
I will submit the patch with 'dma_configure' callback implemented for
the busses shortly.
Cheers - I've been trying to find some time to take a look myself, but 
having something to review instead would certainly be easier :)

Robin.
