SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/3] DMAENGINE: generic slave channel control v2

/me wikipedias "mutatis mutandis", ah sort of latin for the s/// operator :-).

Will there be any users of this field initially, I'd just as soon
leave it out? Like I mentioned to Vinod I think requiring
dma_slave_config to be wrapped is a better way to extend this
structure.
