[PATCH 3/7] dma: apbh: fix out-of-bounds write on 64-bit SoCs

i.MX8 MM & MN are both ARM64 SoCs with a device compatible
with "fsl,imx28-dma-apbh". Probing the barebox device driver on these
SoCs would invoke undefined behavior however, because of an
errant cast. Fix this.

This has a side-effect: Whereas before, probing devices matched by
driver name failed with -ENODEV, they are now considered to be
compatible to IMX23_DMA instead. As we don't depend on this, this
is deemed acceptable.
