[PATCH] dmaengine: pl330: Correct device assignment.

Commit f6f2421c0a1c removed pl330_info structure by embedding it into
pl330_dmac structure, but did not ensure that the dmac->ddma.dev
pointer gets initialised before use. When dma_alloc_coherent() gets
called on arm64 a WARN() gets triggered due to dev being NULL.

(NULL device *): dmac_alloc_resources:1821 Can't allocate memory!
(NULL device *): Unable to create channels for DMAC

This patch will also ensure that any dev_err messages are printed 
with the appropriate device name.
