    i was wondering if you can make use of mhi_get_free_desc() API (pushed
    as part of MHI UCI - User Control Interface driver) here?


I prefer not to depend on PR that is not yet merged to keep things simple, though I could integrate it in my PR... I think this function is good to have anyway for client drivers, and slightly faster since this is just a pointer comparison.

Its a little bit more than that. Frankly, unless you are counting assembly instructions for both methods, the difference is likely to be in the noise.

However, I wonder why core MHI changes were not copied to the proper list (namely linux-arm-msm)?
