Can you give a simple description/idea about your patch? My patch is for fix the
problems when I build a raid environment with talitos offload xor.
I think the new interface is clear enough and similar with the implement of other dma devices.

And do you have any comments about this patch?

You can refer to raid5.c if you do not want to use hardware. Or you can use
you ram (or other storage devices) to build a raid env to test.
Thanks.
