So for ARM 'allnoconfig' build we have CONFIG_OF enabled but
CONFIG_DMA_OF disabled. With that the of-dma.c gets compiled
out leaving the functions from of-dma.h undefined. I noticed
this while adding couple of exports in of_dma.h

I am not sure but we added couple of functions for dma-ranges
and dma-coherent which gets called from generic code.

In any case, the patch makes sense since the header and Makefile
are not consistent.

Regards,
Santosh
