dmaengine: pxa_dma: add support for legacy transition
In order to achieve smooth transition of pxa drivers from old legacy dma
handling to new dmaengine, introduce a function to "hide" dma physical
channels from dmaengine.
This is temporary situation where pxa dma will be handled in 2 places :
- arch/arm/plat-pxa/dma.c
- drivers/dma/pxa_dma.c
The resources, ie. dma channels, will be controlled by pxa_dma. The
legacy code will request or release a channel with
pxad_toggle_reserved_channel().
This is not very pretty, but it ensures both legacy and dmaengine
consumers can live in the same kernel until the conversion is done.
