[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 09/17] PPC: dbdma: Introduce kick function

[Alexander Graf]

The DBDMA engine really is running all the time, waiting for input. However
we don't want to waste cycles constantly polling.

So introduce a kick function that data providers can call to notify the
DBDMA controller of new input.
