Not sure, no. Looking at "xconfig", I don't see an option for it. A
colleague said it did.
We've used IDE (for a DVD-ROM) using the Denx kernel. This didn't have
DMA suppport, but Freescale gave us a derivate kernel that it, which
seemed to work well. They said they were going to push this up through
Denx into the main kernel. Didn't they bother to do this?

That'd be great.
