Very nice overall. Just a few minor comments.

I wonder if we should mandate that the lookup table is 'const'.

We could also drop the DMA_FILTER_ENTRY() macro above, and open-code the
table like

static struct dma_filter_map da830_edma_map[] = {
         { "davinci-mcasp.0", "rx", EDMA_CTLR_CHAN(0, 0)},
         { "davinci-mcasp.0", "tx", EDMA_CTLR_CHAN(0, 1)},
         { "davinci-mcasp.1", "rx", EDMA_CTLR_CHAN(0, 2)},
	 ...
};

which is a little more compact and more obvious, but loses the
named initializers.
