So, the Freescale driver was written before change went effective. I
guess in 2011 DMA Engine drivers should use issue pending.
Please, refactor since this behaviour is expected.

See above as well.

Maybe move these two lines inside previous condition?

IRQ is slightly different in workflow. In most cases, unfortunately,
there is no achievement by devm_ variant.
At least I know two for now. One of them is DMA Engine slave drivers,
though I didn't notice if you are using tasklet's here.
Otherwise it's okay.
