Can that be moved to a header / C file of its own?

There's a lot of various code already in dmaengine.h and dmaengine.c,
it would be really great to avoid adding more random stuff in there.

This line is over 80 characters.

Is that expected that you allocate through kzalloc, but never have a
matching free function implemented?

I don't really see why this is really tied to the device tree.

Couldn't we use the device_alloc_chan_resources to do that?
