Hi Vinod,

This patch is the fix, since it moves the operations on atchan->status,
in which the interrupt status register is saved, to a different member
(irq_status). The AT_XDMAC_CHAN_IS_CYCLIC and AT_XDMAC_CHAN_IS_PAUSED
bits have nothing in common with the interrupt status register.

The bug reproduces when a device_terminate_all() is called,
(AT_XDMAC_CHAN_IS_CYCLIC cleared on atchan->status) and then a late End
of Block interrupt arrives (AT_XDMAC_CIS_BIS), which sets bit 0 of
atchan->status. Bit 0 is also used for AT_XDMAC_CHAN_IS_CYCLIC, so when
a new descriptor for a cyclic transfer is created, the driver reports
the channel as in use:

if (test_and_set_bit(AT_XDMAC_CHAN_IS_CYCLIC, &atchan->status)) {
dev_err(chan2dev(chan), "channel currently used\n");
return NULL;
}

I can send v2 if you consider the commit message misleading.

Best regards,
Codrin
