If DMA is not available (even when configured in DeviceTree), the driver
will fail the startup procedure thus making serial console not
available.
For example this causes boot failure on QEMU ARMv7 (Exynos4210, SMDKC210):
[ 1.302575] OF: amba_device_add() failed (-19) for /amba/pdma@12680000
...
[ 11.435732] samsung-uart 13800000.serial: DMA request failed
[ 72.963893] samsung-uart 13800000.serial: DMA request failed
[ 73.143361] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000000
DMA is not necessary for serial to work, so continue with UART startup
after emitting a warning.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
