At the point in time that the v1 patch was posted, this was needed for the 
patch in an RFC series:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240518124234.2671651-19-s-vadapalli@xxxxxx/
Although the RFC series hasn't been merged, since it is still possible for
non platform-device users to call the DMA APIs which in turn depend on the 
k3-ringacc APIs being exported, I posted the v2 patch.

If you believe that this patch should be posted along with the dependent 
series, I will do so and the patch can be ignored.

Siddharth.
