Sorry, I didn't compare the assembly code. It's a subtle change. 
As you mentioned the "noodle" before.

Old:
dma_map_single(dma->chan_using->device->dev, ...);
dma_mapping_error(dma->chan_using->device->dev, ...);
dma_unmap_single(dma->chan_using->device->dev, ...);
	
New:
struct device *chan_dev = dma->chan_using->device->dev;
dma_map_single(chan_dev, ...);
dma_mapping_error(chan_dev, ...);
dma_unmap_single(chan_dev, ...);
