From: Frank Li <Frank.Li@nxp.com>

Add dmaengine_get_provider_device() API and kernel doc for
dmaengine_get_dma_device() to describe the difference.

dmaengine_get_dma_device() is used for DMA mapping because some DMA
engines provide per-channel iommu mapping.

dmaengine_get_provider_device() is used to find a DMA engine channel
by a filter function.

In most cases they return the same value, but they have different
semantic meanings.

Prepare make dma_device private after all driver change to use new
APIs.
