For gpmi-nand.h is placed in include/linux/mtd/ directory, so i think
it's better to place the mxs-dma.h
to similar include/linux/dma/ directory, but the directory does not exit.

If i place it at include/linux/fsl/mxs-dma.h , i have to create a new
folder, I am not sure i have the right
to do so. But i can try it in the next version.

thanks a lot.
