The U300 (COH901318) device can do this.

The usecase is basically that the modem CPU sets up a PCM
stream on the high-speed serial link (called MSL) and the DMA
controller reads 16 bit words from this link and routes it directly
to a PCM sink on an I2S hardware.

Actually it runs in both directions during a voicecall, you can
probably see the gain in power and CPU unload this will gain
on a phone.

However this is all out-of-tree code and not that big deal as
it's a legacy platform.
