Let's start by answering the background question and updating the DMA engine
API documentation once and for good : in which context are drivers allowed to
call the prep, tx_submit and issue_pending functions ?


I think the expectation is that these functions can be called in any context. Maybe what's missing is a way to tell the DMA engine driver to get ready and that it is going to be used very soon. This could be done from the sound devices open() callback.
