Enabling DMA for spi-davinci isn't quite ready yet since this driver is
blindly using dma_map_single() on addresses passed in.  MTD seems to use
vmalloc'd buffers, which cannot be passed direclty to dma_map_single().

I thinks this driver needs an update to use spi_map_buf() to be able to
handle vmalloc'd buffers before always enabling DMA.
