Is anyone actually using dmover(9)?



Hey folks --

Back in the early 2000s, I wrote the "dmover" API, which provided a facility for data-mover engines to provide a common interface.  It supports basic data movement and XOR.

Unfortunately, it never really took off.  A few SoC back-ends exist... For the Intel i80321 Application Accelerator Unit, the Intel PXA2x0 DMA controller, and the Marvell/Galileo DMA controller.  As far as I am aware, there are no clients for it.

I'm thinking it should go.  Are there any objections?  If not, I will remove it.
