dma: add support for scatterlist to scatterlist copy

This adds support for scatterlist to scatterlist DMA transfers. A
similar interface is exposed by the fsldma driver (through the DMA_SLAVE
API) and by the ste_dma40 driver (through an exported function).

This patch paves the way for making this type of copy operation a part
of the generic DMAEngine API. Futher patches will add support in
individual drivers.
