In the bugzilla comments, Leif Liddy writes:

   "I needed to modify drivers/dma/dw/pci.c to assign the DMA controller
    irq value to 21 (which is what is listed in the ACPI table) for it
    to work. The DMA controller was being assigned an irq value of 20
    for some reason."

It would seem better to fix up the incorrect interrupt number in a quirk,
rather than disabling DMA wholesale.

Thanks,
