With the error, it seems that dmachannel is not getting allocated.

Some dma changes which I sent and already on linux-next are also require
with the above change.
Alsong with that I have local change like to rename the dma driver to
compatible with dts files (remove -new from driver).

I think I should send that patches so that you can test it by:
- Taking already applied dma driver change in linux-next.
- Apply my new patches which I am going to send.

And do local change in the tegra_defconfig to disable SYSTEM_DMA and
enable dmaengine based dma driver.

Possibly some patches in dma driver which is already applied in next is
not available in your tree. CYCLIC_DMA patch is important.

I tested on cardhu only but it should not matter.
