I don't think you'd get any advantage of activating DMA inside the qemu 
guest-OS, as qemu has to proxy all rw-access into a file anyway, unless 
you pass an actual device/partition to qemu. Besides qemu is emulating 
the complete pci bus, which cannot use features of actual hardware in 
the machine (e.g. your hdd or features your chipset provide). I guess it 
would be possible to emulate uDMA inside the vm, too, but it's likely to 
even slowdown the emulation.

So long,
Jan
