Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 05/38] dmaengine: dw-edma: Add a helper to query linked-list region

A remote eDMA provider may need to expose the linked-list (LL) memory
region that was configured by platform glue (typically at boot), so the
peer (host) can map it and operate the remote view of the controller.

Export dw_edma_chan_get_ll_region() to return the LL region associated
with a given dma_chan.
