12.3.11 Channel Mask and Group Mask Registers (DMAMSK and DMAGRPMSK)
Use the DMAMSK and DMAGRPMSK registers to disable (mask) or enable channel hardware
requests. DMAMSK allows you to disable or enable hardware requests for only one channel at a
time, while DMAGRPMSK allows you to disable or enable hardware requests for both channels
at once.
NOTE
Each mask bit is set when its associated channel produces an End-of-Process if
the channel is not programmed for Autoinitialize. Software must then clear the
appropriate mask bit to allow further DREQn requests from initiating
transfers.
