The of-dma.c is compiled out with !CONFIG_DMA_OF but the functions in
the header are kept under CONFIG_OF. Move them under CONFIG_OF_DMA
to avoid build errors with CONFIG_OFF && !CONFIG_DMA_OF

Sorry, but what is the problem you are seeing with this?

CONFIG_DMA_OF is defined as 'OF && DMAENGINE', and this code
should only be called from drivers that depend on DMAENGINE.

I'm not saying your patch is wrong, but you shouldn't need it
unless you do something very odd.
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
