Probably not. The only modern DT-aware DMAC drivers for Renesas
hardware are drivers/dma/sh/{rcar,usb}-dmac.c. Soon there will be
drivers/dma/sh/rz-dmac.c, for RZ/G2L (and RZ/A1 and RZ/A2 later).
Given the R-Car DMAC is very similar to the SH/R-Mobile DMAC, the
latter may be made to work with rcar-dmac.c, if anyone is willing
to spend cycles on that. Likewise, the RZ/A DMAC probably has its
roots in older SH SoCs, so that may be helpful for you, too.
Chris (CCed) may know better...

None of these handle DMA?
