Hi,

When other cores want to use EDMA for their use cases Linux was not playing
nicely.
By design EDMA is supporting shared use with shadow regions. Linux is using
region0, others can be used by other cores.

In order to not break multicore shared usage of EDMA:
- do not reset paRAM slots which is not allocated for Linux (reserved paRAM
  slots)
- Only reset region0 access registers, do not touch other regions
- Add option for reserved channels which should not be used by Linux in a similar
  fashion as we already have for reserved paRAM slots.

Regards,
Peter
