Funnily enough, this bit is not set for the LS1043A either [1]. So maybe
this is a U-Boot bug? I'll test this tomorrow.

Neat, I didn't know about that.
Yes, that sounds good. For the moment, only i2c0 uses DMA, so we will
only need it there. At some point, someone should send a patch enabling
it for the rest of the I2C devices, as well as the LPUARTs and SPIs.
