Now that the generic DMAEngine API has support for scatterlist to
scatterlist copying, the device_prep_slave_sg() portion of the
DMA_SLAVE API is no longer necessary and has been removed.
However, the device_control() portion of the DMA_SLAVE API is still
useful to control device specific parameters, such as externally
controlled DMA transfers and maximum burst length.
A special dma_ctrl_cmd has been added to enable externally controlled
DMA transfers. This is currently specific to the Freescale DMA
controller, but can easily be made generic when another user is found.

The slab.h header is required to use the kmalloc() family of functions.
Due to recent kernel changes, this header must be directly included by
code that calls into the memory allocator.
Without this patch, any code which includes this header fails to build.

Use the DMA_SLAVE capability of the DMAEngine API to copy/from a
scatterlist into an arbitrary list of hardware address/length pairs.
This allows a single DMA transaction to copy data from several different
devices into a scatterlist at the same time.
This also adds support to enable some controller-specific features such as
external start and external pause for a DMA transaction.
