Fix the potential risk when enable config NET_DMA and ASYNC_TX. Async_tx is lack of support in current release process of dma descriptor, all descriptors will be released whatever is acked or no-acked by async_tx, so there is a potential race condition when dma engine is uesd by others clients (e.g. when enable NET_DMA to offload TCP). In our case, a race condition which is raised when use both of talitos and dmaengine to offload xor is because napi scheduler will sync all pending requests in dma channels, it affects the process of raid operations due to ack_tx is not checked in fsl dma. The no-acked descriptor is freed which is submitted just now, as a dependent tx, this freed descriptor trigger BUG_ON(async_tx_test_ack(depend_tx)) in async_tx_submit().

Hardware should not be depend on s/w list, the right way is to read current descriptor address register to find the last completed descriptor. If an interrupt is raised by an error, all descriptors in ld_running should not be seemed finished, or these unfinished descriptors in ld_running will be released wrongly. A simple way to reproduce: Enable dmatest first, then insert some bad descriptors which can trigger Programming Error interrupts before the good descriptors. Last, the good descriptors will be freed before they are processsed because of the exception intrerrupt. Note: the bad descriptors are only for simulating an exception interrupt. This case can illustrate the potential risk in current fsl-dma very well.
