Below results doesn't show DMA case (by the way, how did you disable DMA
in 3.8.7?) for stock kernel.

Anyway, I added preliminary support to change DMA mode run-time. Check
my today topic/dw/qrk branch. It would be nice to see all 4 cases: DMA
vs non-DMA on stock kernel (Yocto) and mine.

P.S. What is the point to test arbitrary tip branch?
