Does DMA API require platform_device or would it work with the generic
struct device? In the latter case, should the MSM layer be changed to
pass struct device instead of struct platform_device?

Here you are breaking the abstraction boundary. The DCP is a VirtIO
device. You should not use IPCC to communicate with it.

What exactly does it mean? Are you using Vendor ID (which should be
Qualcomm) to distinguish between possible QPSFI devices?
