I guess i could, but i don't think i need to define a filter function,
also there is only one possible channel.

Ok, i'm a bit confused,
in v4 those lines were enclosed with 'if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF)) { }'
when you said to me that it was already taken care by the core i though
that of_dma_controller_register will return 0 on non-of systems.
Now i can add back IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF) or discard the ret value.
