Vinod already applied this, so my remarks, if valid, should probably be
handled in a follow up patch.

(The series starting at https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/10/131 would allow
to use builtin_platform_driver() for built-in only code.)

This patch added a bool Kconfig symbol. So pxa_dma.c will never be part
of a module. Its code contains a few module specific macros. Was it
actually intended for PXA_DMA to be tristate?
