While I have no really strong objections to this addition to the dmadev
API, I'd appreciate if you could explain WHY or how this method of working
is more efficient in your usecase? When designing the dmadev APIs
originally, we looked at using both an enqueue-type API as well as the
implemented individual-op-based APIs. IIRC at that time testing showed that
using the single ops directly was faster than using the enqueue APIs, so
I'm wondering what exactly has changed, or is different about your usecase?
