>Description:
	The chapter on DMA in the developers-handbook is no longer valid, and should
be deleted.  From jhb@ on #bsddocs:

16:52  no, that's all ancient
16:53  and irrelevant now
16:53  a real page on bus dma would be good
16:53  but the existing page should just be tossed

As suggested, delete the doc.

>How-To-Repeat:
	N/A
>Fix:

Apply the following patch, and cvs rm doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/dma/chapter.sgml
