DMA client device driver usually needs to know at probe time whether
dma controller has been registered to deffer probe. So add a help
function of_dma_check_controller.

DMA request channel functions can also used to check it, but they
are usually called at open() time.

Do we need to add the following here:

if (ofdma)
	break

To ensure that as soon as a successful match is found, the loop exits?
Otherwise, if there are multiple providers for that name, and the first
N are registered but the last isn't, this function will still return
failure.

That probably should be -EPROBE_DEFER?

Although, what about differentiating between "entry not found by
of_dma_match_channel" and "controller not yet probed"?

Right. Thanks.

I thought it might be called in non-probe functions.  If no people
against it, I'll change it to EPROBE_DEFER.

Thanks
