Subject: dmaengine: omap-dma: Fix polled channel completion detection and handling

From: Peter Ujfalusi <[email protected]>

commit 689d3c5ecc9e2eac714d32ca152b72988bc2a67b upstream.

When based on the CCR_ENABLE bit the channel is stopped we should not call omap_dma_callback(), only change the return value to DMA_COMPLETE. Client drivers will do the right thing to clean up the channel after the transfer has been completed.
Check the CCR_ENABLE only if the channel is running and not paused since pause in sDMA means that the channel is stopped.
This will fix one hard to reproduce race condition when the channel is terminated during transfer (affecting cyclic operation).
