Agreed. The stream bit works, the DMA is more tenuous. Maybe *data_stream_enable()
is generic enough.

Hmm. Maybe. My issue with the original naming was the lack of clarify of
what it actually meant. I'm not sure this helps though in some cases we
do put similar calls in the postenable callback (ones that start the
data flow) so at least it's consistent with that.
