Got it. I will keep dma_map_resource() as it is, which is called in
ls1x_nand_probe().

+       res = platform_get_resource_byname(pdev, IORESOURCE_MEM, "nand-dma");
+       host->dma_base = dma_map_resource(dev, res->start, resource_size(res),
+                                         DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL, 0);
+       if (dma_mapping_error(dev, host->dma_base))
+               return -ENXIO;
