I'm running it on T20 at the moment. I don't know about the DVC quirks, but sounds plausible. Please let me know if you need any other info.

Here the full logs:

PIO-only: http://dpaste.com/2MX3EAN.txt
DMA-only: http://dpaste.com/3VXZSSM.txt

Note the "Failed to read T44 and T5 (-110)" error that happens in DMA-only. And it happens on i2c@7000c000, DVC is i2c@7000d000.
