Comment:

 The patch is correct - Mitch cleared up our understanding. I'll commit it
 tomorrow with a better commit message, plus a fat comment explaining
 exactly whats going on here. In short, the audio DMA engine that we drive
 is simply for copying the data from the audio FIFO into audio SRAM, *not*
 for copying data into main memory. So the attempted use of the linux DMA
 API is incorrect here, since we aren't dealing with main memory.
