Will this driver ever include any 40x processors? If not, you probably
should use "44x" instead (here and everywhere in the rest of the
code).

Should this go into "ppc440spe-dma.h"?

Seems this should go into "ppc440spe-dma.h"?

Ditto?

And here again - please check globally!

Again, should this then not be in ppc440spe specific files?
It seems the split / generalization is highly incomplete yet.
