When the FDMA library was introduced [1], two helpers to get the DMA and
virtual address of a data buffer, in contiguous memory, were added. These
helpers have had no callers until this series. I found the naming I
initially used confusing and inconsistent.
Rename fdma_dataptr_get_contiguous() and
fdma_dataptr_virt_get_contiguous() to fdma_dataptr_dma_addr_contiguous()
and fdma_dataptr_virt_addr_contiguous(). This makes the pair symmetric
and clarifies what type of address each returns.
