    ASoC: omap-pcm: Convert to use dmaengine
    
    Original author: Russell King <rmk+kernel at arm.linux.org.uk>
    
    Switch the omap-pcm to use dmaengine.
    Certain features are not supported by after dmaengine conversion:
    1. No period wakeup mode
       DMA engine has no way to communicate this information through
       standard channels.
