PATCH 1/1 Revert "MIPS: Alchemy: fix dbdma2"

4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>

This reverts commit a16419bae292d768546bcd6e0bfbf8a722756fee which is commit 2d645604f69f3a772d58ead702f9a8e84ab2b342 upstream.

It breaks the build, so should be dropped.
