I wasn't sure either when the file was placed under platform-data.
I agree for now we can keep it mach layer but than means OMAP1 and
OMAP2+ DMA header and source code needs to be split. That
is not so straight forward.

With DMA engine conversion hopefully, we might get rid of the
header eventually, but for now not sure whether we should
go ahead and follow the splitting part.

Thoughts ?
