dmaengine: device must have at least one channel
The DMA device can't be registered if it doesn't have any channels
registered at all. Moreover, it leads to memory leak and is reported by
kmemleak as (on 3.10 kernel, and same shall happen on mainline):
unreferenced object 0xffffffc09e597240 (size 64):
comm "swapper/0", pid 1, jiffies 4294877736 (age 7060.280s)
