I can work up a proof of concept patch but it was kind of convoluted
when I tried before this patch because dmaengine_prep_slave_sg and the
direction member in struct dma_slave_config expect an enum of type
dma_transfer_direction so there are two explicit casts needed and I
thought there were one or two more places that it complained.

This was the cleanest solution to me but I'm happy to rework it in any
way that I need to.

This is fixed in the dma tree and that function isn't used in this file:
