Do we have use case when you want to fall back to generic DMA instead of aDMA2?
IMHO if the driver supports aDMA2, it is going to use it instead of the
generic s/eDMA.
What I mean is:
the driver implements the aDMA2 support.
if the IP has support for aDMA2, then it is going to use it, otherwise it will
use the generic DMA.
