Title:
  Workaround for dw_dmac causing random hang  when booting

Status in HWE Next:
  New
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  On HP X360, we've found dw_dmac hangs system when booting with very
  high fail rate (~80%). System can not turn power off when shutting
  down either if dw_dmac is loaded.

  The maintainer from Intel is proposing a patch to fix this issue, but
  won't be available until 4.3 or 4.4, and there're users already hit
  this problem[1], so we proposed a temporarily workaround to skip
  probing in dw_dmac by returning -ENODEV directly if DMI_PRODUCT_NAME
  matches HP X360 before the fix is ready.
