Implement a DMA uclass so that the devices like ethernet, spi,
mmc etc can offload the data transfers from/to the device and
memory.

You can just use CONFIG_DMA. The DM_ prefix is for when we have an
existing pre-DM interface. Eventually all the CONFIG_DM_... options
will be removed. Unless you have a special reason?

Can you put the above code in a separate function like:

static int get_dma_device(struct udevice **devp)

also also please call device_probe() on it before returning it.

You are not allowed to do this in the post_bind() method. See above
for how it should get probed.

DMA_ prefix on these. Also you could put them in an enum so they are grouped.

For consistency I used CONFIG_DM_DMA, will rename it to CONFIG_DMA.

DMA driver will be having only one transfer api and to identify what
kind of transfer that the user driver is expecting, these enums are used.

Will add DMA prefix to these defines.

Since a dma driver can support multiple transfer types I kept this as
bit level definitions, so that driver can intimate DMA framework like
uc_priv->supported = SUPPORTS_MEM_TO_MEM | SUPPORTS_MEM_TO_DEV;

Oops, I was taking your comment for the whole enums. Thought of having
an error enum as DMA_TRANS_NONE, but it doesn't add value, will remove
it in next version.
