either as kernel in-built or as a module

I agree w/Kim. We need to better understand what the bug is and how to reproduce it so we can get to the root cause.
Paper taping over it by disabling fsldma is not the right solution.
Hopefully this prompts fsldma authors to get involved because the
interoperability issue has been out there without comment*, just
band-aids, since October.
