Hi Vinod,

Would you review this patch?
Or, should I rebase this on the latest your repo?

Best regards,
Yoshihiro Shimoda

> rcar_dmac_chan_get_residue()
> 
> This patch fixes an issue that a race condition happens between a client
> driver and the rcar-dmac driver:
> 
> - The rcar_dmac_isr_transfer_end() is called.
>  - The done list appears, and desc.running is the next active list.
> - rcar_dmac_chan_get_residue() is called by a client driver before
>   rcar_dmac_isr_channel_thread() is called.
>  - The rcar_dmac_chan_get_residue() will not find any descriptors.
>  - And, the following WARNING happens:
>       WARN(1, "No descriptor for cookie!");
> 
> The sh-sci driver with HSCIF (921,600bps) on R-Car H3 can cause this
> situation.
> So, this patch checks the done lists in rcar_dmac_chan_get_residue()
> and returns zero if the done lists has the argument cookie.
