The dma-coherent property is used to indicate a device is capable of
coherent DMA operations.
Which is applied to the EDMA device on i.MX952,  in order to support
such EDMA device,
the memory is need to allocated from DMA device,

The code change is compatible for non dma-coherent and dma-coherent dma devices.

As the comment in the code says,  it is to get the dma device handler
for memory allocation
. After that, it is freed.
