True. Will sending an all new patch with updated 
approach(using ktime instead of jiffies) be good?
Or stick to this with change in commit message?

I think start_load is verbose.

I prefer the latter.

Hmm.... we  are checking the DMA status right after that which means
the firmware load should have happened by then.... thats why I 
am calculating it there....
