I *think* what's happening is that the first call of_platform_bus_probe() is scanning most, but not all, of the tree, and it's somehow reserving all of those nodes.  Then we call of_platform_bus_probe() again, but it never finds the DMA nodes.  of_platform_bus_probe() never actually calls of_platform_bus_create() this time around.  Perhaps the recursive nature of of_platform_bus_create() is part of the problem.

what if you make the p1022_ds_ids call first?  Maybe we need to add 'soc' to p1022_ds_ids list
