Subject: mmc: atmel-mci: don't use dma features when using DMA with no chan 
available

From: Ludovic Desroches <[email protected]>

commit ef8781989a1bcd05aa47e853917c37df44917194 upstream.

Some callbacks are set too early -- i.e. we can have dma capabilities but
we can't get a dma channel. So wait to get the dma channel before setting
callbacks and change logs consequently.
