You can fix this in the kernel, but any versions before this change
will remain broken. IMO, the u-boot change should be reverted because
it is breaking an ABI (though not a good one).

I think this belongs in the AMBA bus code, not the DT code, as that is
where we already have clock control code for similar reasons.

'dma' doesn't sound very generic.
