Note that on cortexM7 DMA can't use cached memory. For this reason you 
have to declare a dedicated memory area for DMA with no-cache attribute.
It is done thanks to a "linux,dma" node plus a kernel config: 
CONFIG_ARM_MPU. I planed to declare this dedicated memeory region in 
sram. Can you check if add it for the same reason I explain and check if 
it works using sram ?
