[PATCH v3 2/7] dmaengine: add a bus for DMA channel devices

From: Peng Fan <peng.fan at nxp.com>
DMA channel devices are currently created as class devices without a bus.
This works for sysfs, but it prevents per-channel DMA/IOMMU configuration:
of_dma_configure() only probes the IOMMU when dev->bus is set, and the
IOMMU core only installs probe/release notifiers for buses listed in
iommu_buses[].
Drivers that need per-channel IOMMU support currently work around this by
assigning dev->bus after device_register(). That leaves the bus subsystem
reference count unbalanced because bus_add_device() already ran with a NULL
bus, and bus_remove_device() will later drop a reference that was never
taken.
Add a dedicated bus for DMA channel devices and register it during
dmaengine initialisation, before iommu_subsys_init(). The match callback
never succeeds, so no driver can bind to these devices. A follow-up patch
will register the channel devices on this bus.
