We do have a DMA controller node for IMX.

	sdma at 83fb0000 {
		compatible = "fsl,imx51-sdma", "fsl,imx35-sdma";
		reg = <0x83fb0000 0x4000>;
		interrupts = <6>;
	};

But it's instantiated as a dmaengine device backed by dmaengine driver
drivers/dma/imx-dma.c.  "imx-pcm-audio" will just be an ASoC dmaengine
client using dmaengine API.
