What is your config regarding to omap_dma?

in the include/linux/omap-dmaengine.h :

#if defined(CONFIG_DMA_OMAP) || (defined(CONFIG_DMA_OMAP_MODULE) &&
defined(MODULE))
bool omap_dma_filter_fn(struct dma_chan *, void *);
#else
static inline bool omap_dma_filter_fn(struct dma_chan *c, void *d)
{
	return false;
}
#endif

DMA_OMAP enables the build of drivers/dma/omap-dma.c

I have not seen this either, and looking at the code I don't think it is
possible. Not with what we have upstream.

this certainly breaks the omap_dma driver on non DT booted systems.
