I used the function snd_dmaengine_pcm_open() in 
sound/soc/soc-dmaengine-pcm.c.
This fails because dmaengine_pcm_request_channel() require caps of 
DMA_CYCLIC
which is called by snd_dmaengine_pcm_open().

Not really,
I called dma_cookie_complete() only from the isr handle_once_dma_done() 
which is only called if it is non-cyclic mode.
