You're probably right.

I can't find anything about the client needing to flush the request itself.

Documentation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/DMA.txt doesn't mention anything regarding it
and the comment above s3c2410_dma_free() says "release the given channel back to
the system, will stop and flush any outstanding transfers, and ensure the
channel is ready for the next claimant."
