There are 6 channels per controller, so the fact that the second
controller isn't working could either be cause the driver needs more work
to handle multiple controllers properly, or there could be a pinmux issue
that hasn't been resolved yet for DMAC1. Both of these cases require the
driver to be a bit smarter, but as Guennadi is presently working on these
things, doing them incrementally is ok with me. If this gets DMAC0
working at least where it wasn't before, it's certainly worth applying.
DMAC1 seems to have more problems than just wrong interrupt numbers, so
this isn't going to cause any regressions there either.
