Thanks for sharing this! Unfortunately the plans to include a DMA
for I2S audio were postponed so I never got to the point of
implementing/testing it. As I don't see any plans in using this
cyclic DMA for now I guess if I need to use it I will implement
it again using the standard cyclic DMA engine API.
