Implement suggestion of @jahofmann in:
#296 (comment)

When a new device is created a dummy implementation of the DMA Engine is
used that simply does nothing. The actual DMA Engine is initialized
later when the access mode is changed from monitor to exclusive mode.

This is necessary to prevent a monitoring application like
tapasco-debug to allocate all DMA Buffers of the kernel driver.
