I know that, but I still don't see the problem. If this issue is specific to the ECSPI IP integrated into a imx6dl SoC you need to check for the machine compatible in the driver and disable DMA support based on this. We generally avoid checking for the machine compatible in drivers and prefer to have a specific IP block compatible instead, but in that case it's the only reasonable thing to do.
