This was done by intent as before code merge plain ARM driver used DMA while
ASoC didn't. That was done mainly because I didn't have all the hw
variants (only
pxa255 at hand) and didn't want to introduce any points of possible failure.
Now merging DMA code into generic code path would be a nice feature though.

The initial impact of the merge should be void, as it was an
_unification_ of code
presented in ASoC and non-ASoC drivers.
