After I have spent some more time with implementing the code for dw_dma,
I think the mask is actually unnecessary here, the helper could just
always set it to DMA_SLAVE before calling __dma_request_channel.

It's not a bug to do it this way though, and it may help convert drivers
a little easier if there is less to change.
