I've checked the other DMA operations, and there are a few direct
callers of .device_prep_dma_memcpy() and .device_prep_slave_sg(). The
former should be easy to address, as the dmaengine_prep_dma_memcpy()
wrapper is a drop-in replacement. The latter may be a bit more
complicated.

Any volunteer to send patches ? :-)
