There is also a patch series from Maxime Ripard that's addressing the
same general area. See "dt-bindings: Add a dma-parent property". We
don't need multiple ways to address describing the device to memory
paths, so you all had better work out a common solution.

Looks like this fits exactly into the interconnect API concept. I see
MBUS as interconnect provider and display/camera as consumers, that
report their bandwidth needs. I am also planning to add support for
priority.

Thanks for working on this. After looking at your serie, the one thing
I'm a bit uncertain about (and the most important one to us) is how we
would be able to tell through which interconnect the DMA are done.

This is important to us since our topology is actually quite simple as
you've seen, but the RAM is not mapped on that bus and on the CPU's,
so we need to apply an offset to each buffer being DMA'd.
