Subject: dmaengine: bcm2835-dma: Use vchan_terminate_vdesc() instead of desc_free

From: Peter Ujfalusi <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit de92436ac40ffe9933230aa503e24dbb5ede9201 ]

To avoid race with vchan_complete, use the race free way to terminate running transfer.

Implement the device_synchronize callback to make sure that the terminated descriptor is freed.
