I'd just use dma_configure as the callback.

Currently the of_dma_configure and acpi_dma_configure are only used
for PCI anyway, as no one else sets a non-NULL dma dev. For fsl-mc
I suspect only of_dma_configure is relevanet, so just call that directly.
If at some point we get enough busses with either OF or ACPI we could
create a helper called from ->dma_configure for that.
