I have similar experience and a HW behaviour. Your reasoning seems
correct to me.

If there are no regressions, we could consider this as a nice
clean-up, instead of waiting for the dependencies to be resolved.

Did you run some performance test?

The next step would be to convert the driver to a use threaded IRQ
handler in favour of the dma_issue tasklet. That should also work,
right!? :-)
