If NO_DMA=y, get_dma_ops() returns a reference to the
non-existing symbol bad_dma_ops, thus causing a link failure if it is
ever used.
Make get_dma_ops() return NULL instead, to avoid the link failure.
This allows to improve compile-testing, and limits the need to keep on
sprinkling dependencies on HAS_DMA all over the place.
