Ah, sorry, indeed. Peter is right.

It means that previously the use of DMA engine whatever was used is not
correct in your case. There is no issues in UART driver, the issue is in
DMA controller driver.
I'm working on a quirk that will allow user to enforce PIO mode for
Rx/Tx or both. In that case if DMA controller can't be fixed you still
might use DMA for Tx.
