DMA naming in the sound driver

Hello Alan and Linux kernel people,

I have noticed that the sound driver refers to "DMA" as "DRQ" in
several places, including /dev/sndtat and error printk's. Is DRQ
something different from DMA? If not, it probably be nice to change
it to DMA for consistency? It might break some programs that parse
/dev/sndstat, but I personally have never seen any of them.

Just my $10^-6
