+			S3C2410 DMA
+			===========
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+   The kernel provides an interface to manage DMA transfers
+   using the DMA channels in the CPU, so that the central
+   duty of managing channel mappings, and programming the
+   channel generators is in one place.
+
+
+DMA Channel Ordering
+--------------------
+
+   Many of the range do not have connections for the DMA
+   channels to all sources, which means that some devices
+   have a restricted number of channels that can be used.
+
+   To allow flexibility for each CPU type and board, the
+   DMA code can be given a DMA ordering structure which
+   allows the order of channel search to be specified, as
+   well as allowing the prohibition of certain claims.
+
+   struct s3c24xx_dma_order has a list of channels, and
+   each channel within has a slot for a list of DMA
+   channel numbers. The slots are searched in order for
+   the presence of a DMA channel number with DMA_CH_VALID
+   or-ed in.
+
+   If the order has the flag DMA_CH_NEVER set, then after
+   checking the channel list, the system will return no
+   found channel, thus denying the request.
+
+   A board support file can call s3c24xx_dma_order_set()
+   to register a complete ordering set. The routine will
+   copy the data, so the original can be discarded with
+   __initdata.
