+Cc Robert, dmaengine list.

Bisecting would be helpful. You could also try reverting following commits:
88987d2c75
aee4d1fac8

Other possible test case would be disabling runtime PM for pl330 DMA driver:

for i in /sys/bus/amba/drivers/dma-pl330/*.[amp]dma/power ; do
  echo "on" > ${i}/control
done

Best regards,
Krzysztof
