The blsp_dma controller is shared between the different subsystems,
which is why it is already initialized by the firmware. We should not
reinitialize it from Linux to avoid potential other users of the DMA
engine to misbehave.
In mainline this can be described using the "qcom,controlled-remotely"
property. In the downstream/vendor kernel from Qualcomm there is an
opposite "qcom,managed-locally" property. This property is *not* set
for the qcom,sps-dma@7884000 [1] so adding "qcom,controlled-remotely"
upstream matches the behavior of the downstream/vendor kernel.
Adding this seems to fix some weird issues with UART where both
input/output becomes garbled with certain obscure firmware versions on
some devices.

This should only be backported to v6.5+ since it depends on commit
8975dd41a9db ("dmaengine: qcom: bam_dma: allow omitting
num-{channels,ees}") which landed in v6.5.
