This one should probably remain a ux500-specific flag, unlike the single
IRQ flag, this is something else.

AFAICT the DBCKEND signal is simply not routed in the ux500
(probably neither on the Nomadik) variant, so we can't wait for it.

On the U300 on the other hand, it is routed and available, if and
only if you're using PIO mode. (However it can arrive *after* the
DATAEND signal, which the other pending patch takes care of).

During DMA this signal is disfunct also in U300...
