The sysbus floppy controllers (devices sysbus-fdc and sun-fdtwo)

done in the device instance_init functions sysbus_fdc_initfn() and
sun4m_fdc_initfn(), but in commit 1430759ec3e we refactored this code
and accidentally lost the setting of dma_chann.

My bad :( Thanks for cleaning up.

For sysbus-fdc this has no ill effects because we were redundantly
also setting dma_chann in fdctrl_init_sysbus(), but for sun-fdtwo
this means that guests which try to enable DMA on the floppy
controller will cause QEMU to crash because FDCtrl::dma is NULL.

Set dma_chann to -1 in the common instance init, and remove the
redundant code in fdctrl_init_sysbus() that is also setting it.

There is a six-year-old FIXME comment in the jazz board code to the
effect that in theory it should support doing DMA via a custom DMA
controller.  If anybody ever chooses to fix that they can do it by
adding support for setting both FDCtrl::dma_chann and FDCtrl::dma.
(A QOM link property 'dma-controller' on the sysbus device which can
be set to an instance of IsaDmaClass is probably the way to go.)
