Exact regression: http://git.redump.net/mame/commit/?id=ab65d826647321fb9b728ca269c7a9142320e304
Readding the cycle stealing (space.device().execute().adjust_icount(-8);) at the top of snes_state:dma_transfer brings the controls back to working, though it's obviously not a fix. It might be useful for further driver development, though.
