I just looked at that code an I'm completely confused about how that
even works today. I do see that the driver is used on ATAGS based
davinci machines, which means we can't just look into the DT.

The main problem seems to stem from arch/arm/common/edma.c being
half the driver that provides interfaces to both drivers/dma/edma.c
and to sound/soc/davinci/davinci-pcm.c, while drivers/dma/edma.c
is not really a driver by itself. My preferred solution to this would
be to move arch/arm/common/edma.c into drivers/dma/edma.c and still
have it export its private API, but I assume that the dmaengine
maintainers have already NAKed that approach.

Would the approach below work?

Subject: dma: edma: move device registration to platform code

The horrible split between the low-level part of the edma support
and the dmaengine front-end driver causes problems on multiplatform
kernels. This is an attempt to improve the situation slightly
by only registering the dmaengine devices that are actually
present.
