Agree. There is no good point in duplicating the code.
So this new API will be part of 'drivers/base/dma-mapping.c' file?

I am more inclined to what Robin states in other mail to keep symmetry.
i.e. to keep dma_configure() and dma_deconfigure() and call
dev->bus->dma_configure from dma_configure(). Is this okay?
