[PATCH v2 0/7] ASoC et alia: Convert to use dma_request_chan()

[PATCH v2 0/7] ASoC et alia: Convert to use dma_request_chan()

[Andy Shevchenko]

Convert the last users (mostly in ASoC) to use dma_request_chan() and
drop deprecated dma_request_slave_channel() completely.

I think the best is to allow Mark to take the whole lot and provide an
immutable tag or branch to others (DMAengine and GPIB).

Changelog v2:
- Add a comment that errors are now propagated to the caller (Frank)
- Make sure the error pointer is not dereferenced (Sashiko, Mark)
- Collected tags

[PATCH v2 1/7] ASoC: stm32: spdifrx: Drop mention of the deprecated and unused call

[Andy Shevchenko]

The error message was not updated while driver moved from the
deprecated dma_request_slave_channel() to the dma_request_chan().
Update the message by replacing it with the correct function.

This is strange. I used `b4 am` to collect tags, most likely it was an old
version (before you sent that email). I will anyway issue a v3 and I double
check that all new tags are added.

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
