Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] Add DMA support for ti_am335x_adc driver

The ADC has a 64 word depth fifo length which holds the ADC data
till the CPU reads. So when a user program needs a large ADC data
to operate on, then it has to do multiple reads to get its
buffer. Currently if the application asks for 4 samples per
channel with all 8 channels are enabled, kernel can provide only
3 samples per channel when all 8 channels are enabled (logs at
[1]). So with DMA support user can request for large number of
samples at a time (logs at [1]).

Tested the patch on AM437x-gp-evm and AM335x Boneblack with the
patch [2] to enable ADC and pushed a branch for testing [3]

Changes from v2:
* Fixed an issue on handling of error return from dma_request_chan().

Changes from Initial version:
* Changed DMA api from dma_request_slave_channel_compat() to
  dma_request_chan()
* Changed variable names to have more clear information as per
  comments from Peter.
